DIVA T/A ISDN Modem User’s Guide 5
Introduction
DIVA T/A is an external ISDN modem available in S/T and U
interface versions. It provides easy and affordable high-speed Basic
Rate Interface (BRI) ISDN connection to the Internet or to your office
LAN. With the DIVA T/A, Small Office Home Office (SOHO) users
and telecommuters can combine the higher performance of ISDN with
the simplicity of a terminal adapter. The DIVA T/A supports all
standard modem AT commands.
You can connect the DIVA T/A to a serial port on your computer that
complements your TCP/IP application (without the need for additional
device drivers).
Internet Access
The DIVA T/A allows you to connect to the Internet over an ISDN
line at speeds of up to 128 kilobits per second. Without virtually any
delays, you can access online services or browse the World Wide
Web to download high-resolution graphics, video clips, interactive
games, music, etc.
Work-at-Home Access
The DIVA T/A provides the telecommuter with fast access to network
resources back at the office. You can access applications such as
email or download data from a remote database in a fraction of the
time it would take using a conventional analog modem.
Analog Device Ports
(Certain models only)
Analog device ports (also referred to as Plain Old Telephone
Service--POTS) let you connect regular telephones, modems or fax
machines to your DIVA T/A. Calls to and from these devices are
carried over your ISDN line. This can save you the expense of
installing a separate analog phone line.
Analog device users get a variety of calling features such as Call
Forward, Call Waiting, Caller ID, 3-way call conferencing, and
VoiceMail. See the section “Analog Device Support” on page 98 for
details.
