PCI 2-Line WAN with Modem (FC 6833, 6834)
Learn about the features of the PCI 2-Line WAN with Modem.
Feature 6833 is a 2-line per port WAN with modem adapter. This feature is the non-CIM (Complex Impedance Matching) version offered in all countries and regions except Australia and New Zealand. 6833 is physically the same card as 2793, but 6833 indicates to IBM® configurator tools that the IOA is being used by the operating system in an IOPless mode.
6834 is a 2-line/port WAN w/modem adapter. This feature is the CIM (Complex Impedance Matching) version which is offered only in Australia and New Zealand. 6834 is functionally equivalent to 2794, but 6834 indicates to IBM configurator tools that the IOA is being used by the operating system in an IOPless mode.
Port 0 is the modem port and supports V.92 56K Async PPP, V.92 data modem, V.44 data compression, V.34 FAX modem and FAX functions, such as ECM and 2D/1D conversion. Port 0 does not provide Sync modem capabilities (SDLC and Sync PPP). Port 1 is the RVX port and supports multiple communications protocols, including synchronous operations.
