F.3 OPERATING PARAMETERS
The operating parameters consists of UART transfer rates and transmission modes.
F.3.1 UART TRANSFER RATES
The transfer rate between the modem’s UART and the PCI interface (also known as the DTE-to-
DCE transfer rate) is selectable and generally set to match the modem’s typical transmission mode.
The modem supports the standard rates of 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 28800,
38400, 57600, and 115200 bps as well as the high-speed rate of 230400 bps.
F.3.2 TRANSMISSION MODES
The Compaq/Lucent V.90 56K PCI Modem supports the transmission modes listed in table F-1.

NOTE:
For 56K operation to occur with this device, the following criteria must be met:
- Distant end modem must support 56K modem technology
and
be digitally terminated.
- Transmission path must contain no more than one analog-to-digital conversion.
The criteria for 56K operation (see note under table F-1) are likely to be met when connecting to
an internet service provider (ISP) through a local phone number. Note also that the 56K transfer
rate applies only to receive data (i.e., “downloads”). Data will be transmitted (“uploaded”) at a
maximum rate of 33.6 Kb/s.
