NetComm SCINTRA600 User Manual

NetComm's SCINTRA600 series of PCI RAS cards introduces a new level of performance and flexibility not available in conventional multimodem cards. SCINTRA is far more than just a bank of up to eight modems plugged together on a PCI card. Onboard dedicated acceleration hardware along with the latest V.92 Chipset technology from Connexant delivers the highest throughput while placing minimum load on your server’s processor. Efficient handling of the eight COM ports eliminates data corruption errors and poor throughput that is so often the case under high load conditions using conventional serial port modems.

Flexible Application

Simultaneous Dial-up communications for your office computer or Network system is easy to achieve with this simple to install solution. Combined with off the shelf software for applications such as EFPOS, On-Line Banking, Fax Serving, Data Logging, Remote or Internet access, your business can ecconomically deliver the services your customers and users need.

Integrity Assured

With the Intra PCI, there is no need to compromise the security of your network or server by broadcasting all your remote communications across your LAN to a communications black box. There’s no need for exposure to proprietary solutions that put holes in your server’s firewall. The Intra is fully integrated with your server operating system environment. This integrity ensures from the start you have all the protection you need.

Easy to Install and Upgrade

The Intra PCI server cards are Plug & Play compliant. They are also designed to support the latest PCI bus interfaces. There are no switches or jumpers to set. Simply install the card using your operating system's standard procedures and installation wizards. The Intra PCI card has been designed to ensure it functions with the full range of third party communications software. There are no messy cables, no stacks of external modems or network devices to go wrong. You just simply connect your computer and network directly to the phone lines - no fuss, no hassles. The Intra PCI card is available in a number of module configurations with two, four, six or eight modems already preinstalled. Additional modules are available to upgrade the Intra 2, 4, or 6 PCI cards.
