modems@telebit.UUCP (Modem Mail Account) (03/07/90)
Hello!
There seems to be an on-going discussion/debate concerning high-speed
modems in regards to CCITT and proprietary modulation schemes, as well
as defacto standards and pricing. I can't possibly address all the
questions and issues without evangelizing or delivering a sales pitch.
In short, TELEBIT manufactures the following modems:
T2500 PEP (18031 bps/19200 with Lempel-Ziv compression)
CCITT V.32 Synchronous/asynchronous (9600)
CCITT V.22bis, V.22 (2400,1200)
Bell 212A and 103J (1200, 300)
MNP Class 4 (error correction)
MNP Class 5 (data compression)
UUCP, X/Y modem, Kermit, SNA/SDLC Protocol Support
T2000 All of the above except CCITT V.32
TrailBlazer All of the above except CCITT V.32, SNA/SDLC Protocol
Plus Support
T1000 PEP (11680 bps no compression available)
CCITT V.22bis, V.22 (2400,1200)
Bell 212A and 103J (1200, 300)
MNP Class 4 (error correction)
UUCP, X/Y modem, Kermit Protocol Support
These products are available in various rackmount and PC/PS packagings.
The Ventel Pathfinder and Racal-Milgo 1822 modems contain PEP technology.
I would like to request that questions regarding TELEBIT products be
directed to the account(s) stated in the enclosed document.
The following list contains the current on-line documentation available
from TELEBIT. This documentation is also available from UUNET.UU.NET
and MCSUN.EU.NET via anonymous FTP or UUCP. This information may also
be obtained via UUNET's 1-900-GOT-SRCS in the U.S..

"...A kinder modem for a gentler UNIX community..."
================================================================================modems@telebit.UUCP (Modem Mail Account) (03/23/90)
Hello! I would like to take this opportunity to announce some
MAJOR updates to the TELEBIT Configuration Guides and Technical
Documentation. I have enclosed a list of UNIX configuration
guides and TELEBIT product guides which may be requested via e-mail
and are also available for "anonymous" FTP from the U.S. and
international sites listed.
The updates bring the configuration guides in line with new
TELEBIT products and newer TELEBIT modem firmware releases.
In other words, you will not find any reference to "a small
hole by the RS-232 connector at the back of the modem which
houses the reset button..." and the need for a straightened
paper clip. Optimized modem settings for various UNIX systems,
as well as a VERY generic UNIX set-up guide for use in the set-up
of UNIX systems for dial-in/out (getty/tip/cu), Version2 and
HoneyDANBER UUCP, TCP/SLIP, and Point-to-Point Protocol are
amongst the guides. Technical documentation on TCP/SLIP has been
updated to include new information on the distribution of Van
Jacobson's Compress TCP/SLIP (TCP/CSLIP) and informational
updates on PPP.
Once again, I would like to invite TELEBIT modem users with
configuration specific and general questions on TELEBIT modem
set-up in UNIX and non-UNIX environments to write us at:
UUCP: {uunet, ames, sun, pyramid, decwrl}!telebit!modems
INTERNET: modems@telebit.com
This will allow us to aid you with the on-line configuration
documentation we distribute, as well as providing some basic technical
assistance via e-mail. Telephone Technical Support is available
at:
1-800-TELEBIT OR 1-408-734-5200
These two support channels will provide the most immediate response
for your questions and will prevent any unnecessary cluttering of
this newsgroup with TELEBIT-specific questions.
Questions regarding the pricing and availability of TELEBIT modem
products, as well as distributor/dealer referrals, should be
addressed to the 1-800-TELEBIT Sales Support line. We do not
carry this type of sales propaganda on-line.
I would also like to ask that TELEBIT modem users copy us on any
concerns, suggestions, and/or comments regarding our on-line
configuration guides and technical documents. Contributions of UNIX
and non-UNIX system-specific configurations to the TELEBIT on-line
documentation are ALWAYS welcome! THANK YOU.
