Overview
The COMSPHERE 391x Series modems, a new generation of full-feature, high-speed modems,
offer reliable asynchronous and synchronous operation over leased-line or dial networks. The 391x
Series modems’ unique software defineability allows for the addition of future enhancements,
whether it is installing new features or firmware upgrades.
The modem’
s compatibility with a number of dialing methods and protocols, such as asynchronous
AT commands, CCITT V
.25bis dialing, and the user
-friendly diagnostic control panel (DCP),
permits the 391x Series modem to be used in a variety of applications and environments while also
allowing control over modem configuration, dialing, and diagnostics. The 391x Series modems
offer preset factory configurations containing the most often used modem settings.
