The Zoom/Modem V.92 PC Card Plus Model 1273 is a high-performance 56K fax
modem that plugs into the PCMCIA slot of a Windows laptop computer. The
Model 1273's performance is enhanced by an on-board controller and DSP (Digital
Signal Processor) as well as ITU V.92 / V.44 standard compatibility.
The Zoom/Modem V.92 PC Card Plus outperforms V.90 modems. ITU V.92 is a
new standard for dialup modems. It, and its companion compression standard V.44,
makes communications faster, easier and more enjoyable. The "automatic
negotiation" or "handshake" at the beginning of a call can be over twice as fast with
Zoom/Modem V.92 models than with V.90 modems.
The new V.44 compression technology results in significantly faster Web
browsing and download speeds. Upload speeds (before compression) with
Zoom/Modem V.92 models can be up to 40% faster, too. As an added convenience,
the Zoom/Modem V.92 allows an incoming phone call to be received without losing an
Internet connection. These dramatic improvements in performance are available to
Zoom/Modem V.92 users whose ISP (Internet Service Provider) has upgraded to the
new standard. The Model 1273 is also fully compatible with the V.90 standard.
The Zoom/Modem 56K V.92 PC Card Plus Model 1273’s small size, easy
installation, and rugged connector make it ideal for travelling.
The Model 1273 includes V.80 capability for compatibility with H.324 standard
point-to-point video telephony over regular phone lines. It also supports Group 3,
Class 1 Fax.
Additional features include PC Card Guard™ to protect against damage to the
modem that can be caused by overvoltage. This condition may be caused by
accidental connection to a digital PBX phone. Another protective feature is our
industry leading ZoomGuard

lightning protection. ZoomGuard is not only better than
the “varistor” protection found on other modems, but also outperforms most stand-
alone surge protectors.
Optional software includes hardware drivers and utilities plus fax/voice/data
communications, videoconferencing, Internet access, graphics editing and other
useful programs including AdSubtract
