MultiMobile User Guide

Introduction

Welcome to the world of data communications. You have acquired one of the finest intelligent data and fax modems available today from one of America’ s oldest and most respected modem manufacturer: Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. This user’s guide will help you install, configure, test and use your modem.

Product Description

The MT5634ZLX/FE is a multifunction communication device that lets you perform multiple communication tasks concurrently , using a single PCMCIA slot. The MT5634ZLX/FE:
is V.90 and K56flexTM compatible for data transmission speeds up to 56 Kbps, while maintaining compatibility with lower-speed modems. The V.90 and K56flex standards asymmetrically transfer data--client downloads at speeds up to 56 Kbps, client uploads at speeds up to 33.6 Kbps;
sends and receives faxes from computers or fax machines; and
connects to an Ethernet 10BaseTX or 100BaseTX LAN.
The MT5634ZLX/FE is a credit-card-size T ype II PCMCIA card that complies with the PCMCIA
2.1 and JEIDA 4.1 standards and works with computers that incorporate a compatible interface. It is Bell, ITU-T and AT command compatible, allowing it to be used worldwide with today’ s popular communication software programs. You can send and receive faxes with any Group 3 fax machine. The broad Card and Socket Services (CSS) compatibility also makes for trouble-free Internet and Intranet connections. For those who prefer not to use CSSs, the MT5634ZLX/FE includes a point enabler for the multifunction card. Using standard phone lines and 10BaseTX Ethernet, the MT5634ZLX/FE lets you access servers on a LAN and connect to the Internet or on-line computer networks such as CompuServe and America Online, and permits you to transmit E-Mail, send and receive information, and communicate with other PCs.

Fast Ethernet

Fast Ethernet is a network technology specified by IEEE Standard 802.3u. It extends the traditional 10 Mbps Ethernet technology to achieve 100 Mbps transmission and reception, while retaining the same CSMA/CA Ethernet protocol. Thus while Fast Ethernet provides a tenfold increase in network capacity , it is wholly compatible with traditional 10 Mbps Ethernet network facilities. This compatibility is the key to easy and efficient upgrades to 100 Mbps in your network areas needing greater bandwidth. Upgrading selected areas to Fast Ethernet does not require hardware or software changes in network areas where traditional 10 Mbps Ethernet is providing good service. For upgrading existing Ethernet installations to 100 Mbps, and especially for selectively upgrading areas needing upgrade, Fast Ethernet is the clear choice in terms of cost­effectiveness, as well as convenience and smoothness in transition.
Figure 1-1. MT5634ZLX/FE PCMCIA Card
Fast Ethernet comprises two subtypes: 100Base-T4 and 100Base-TX. 100Base-T4 Fast Ethernet can utilize existing Category 3 or Category 4 UTP network cabling, but does not provide

MT5634ZLX/FE
for full duplex operation. 100Base-TX requires Category 5 cabling, but does provide full duplex operation. Full duplex 100Base-TX operation allows simultaneous transmission and reception, both at 100 Mbps, thus providing service potentially equal to 200 Mbps half-duplex service. The MT5634ZLX/FE does not support the 100Base-T4 subtype. To provide compatibility in traditional 10 Mbps Ethernet environments (where, for example, MT5634ZLX/FE cards are installed anticipating upgrade of supporting hub equipment to Fast Ethernet), the MT5634ZLX/FE also supports traditional 10 Mbps Ethernet operation, in full-duplex as well as half-duplex modes. Selection of the best operation mode in any given installation is automatically governed by auto­negotiation.

Auto-negotiation

You have probably had the experience of making a dialup connection through a modem, and have heard the gravelly-sounding exchanges between your modem and the modem at the other end of the telephone line (these exchanges are ordinarily played out through a speaker in your local modem). As irritating as those few seconds of noise may be, they do let you know that your modem and the remote modem are on the job, preparing for your intended communication with the remote computer. The preparatory work of the two modems during those few seconds before you see the “Connect” message is to negotiate the best data communication scheme which is supported by both modems, and which is suitable for the quality of the telephone line linkage between them. The parameters to be settled between the two modems include best baud rate, compression method, and error correction method. When the two modems have tested the phone line quality and settled on the combination of shared options and parameters which will provide the best data communication over the connecting phone line, then you are given the “Connect” message which signals the end of the intermodem negotiation and the beginning of your intended communication with the remote computer.
Chapter 1 - Introduction and Description
Auto-negotiation between devices within an Ethernet LAN is similar in concept, but much briefer. The two devices involved in the auto-negotiation will be the MT5634ZLX/FE card installed in your laptop PC, and the hub through which it is connected into the LAN. The options to be negotiated between the MT5634ZLX/FE and its supporting hub include Ethernet type (100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet or 10BASE-T Ethernet) and duplex mode (half-duplex, being one-way-at-a-time, or full duplex, being simultaneous transmit-and-receive). Startup communication between the two devices occurs when both devices are power-on, the cable connection between them is good, and the Network Operating System software is running. As soon as those conditions are satisfied, the preparatory process of auto-negotiation between the MT5634ZLX/FE and its supporting hub proceeds automatically. If the hub has auto-negotiation functionality, then it and the MT5634ZLX/FE exchange a series of messages in which each device signals its capabilities and listens for corresponding information about the other. The auto-negotiation process requires only a few milliseconds, and the two devices select the best communication parameters supported by both devices. If the hub does not have auto-negotiation functionality , then its monotone (single capability) message will be recognized by the MT5634ZLX/FE’s auto­negotiation facility, and the MT5634ZLX/FE will simply switch to the one of its own capabilities which matches that of the hub.
When the preparatory procedure of auto-negotiation is completed, the line is ready and will provide a data channel which is optimal for the two devices. The line will remain ready without further auto-negotiation action until the linkage is broken. Auto-negotiation then reoccurs at any time that the linkage is restored, again making the line ready for optimal data communications.

Category 3 and Category 5 Ethernet Cabling

The MT5634ZLX/FE supports Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cabling for Ethernet LAN operation. Cat. 5 UTP cable uses the same RJ-45 connector that is used with 10BASET. (Cat. 3 cable can be used if the 100 Mbps port is running at 10 Mbps.) For 10 Mbps operation, use 100m/Cat. 3/4/5 UTP/STP cable. For 100 Mbpsoperation, use 100m/Cat. 5 UTP/STP cabling.
