Communicating with Your NEC Versa
Mini-PCI Modem
The NEC Versa VXi comes equipped with a 56K capable fax/data modem that allows
you to communicate with others via fax, email, or connect to an online service or
bulletin board. (The modem is only available on some models.)
Note
Due to FCC regulations in effect at the time that this document was printed,
the 56K modem transmits at a maximum speed of 52K.
The speed of data transmission is dependent on the quality of telephone lines. Digitally
terminated lines improve the speed of data transmission. Contact your service provider
for more information.
Connecting the Modem
The fax/data modem provides one standard phone connector. NEC provides one analog
cable for your convenience.
Use only 26AWG phone line when connecting the modem.
Use the following steps to connect the analog phone cable to your modem.
Note
When using a modem outside the U.S. and Canada, you might need an
international telephone adapter, available at most electronics supply stores.
1.
Locate the analog phone cable that ships with the NEC Versa VXi. Each end of the
cable has a RJ-11 connector that plugs into a standard wall outlet.
2.
Connect one end of the cable into a standard telephone wall outlet.
3.
Connect the other end of the cable into the computer’s modem port at the rear of
the system.
Note
Depending on your operational requirements, you may need to disable the
modem in order to enable the IR port for wireless data transfer.
