1.1 Overview

The SAGEM ADSL modem exists in two models :

1 - Introduction

¾ The SAGEM F@st™ 800,

¾ The SAGEM F@st™ 840.

The SAGEM F@st™ 800 modem is designed for Internet connection by the switched analog telephonic network (PSTN)

The SAGEM F@st™ 840 modem is designed for Internet connection by the integrated service digital network (ISDN).

In the next sections of this User Guide, we will use the general term SAGEM F@st™ 800/840 to designate these two modems. However, we will notify you of notable differences every time it will be necessary.

The SAGEM F@st™ 800 / 840 is an ADSL over ISDN modem used to browse the Internet with ease at speeds of up to 8 Mbit/s. The modem's purpose is to transmit data between a terminal (PC or Mac) connected by a USB interface and an Internet Access Provider (IAP), via an ADSL link.

The SAGEM F@st™ 800 / 840 supports the following encapsulations:

• PPPoA in VCMUX mode,

• PPPoA in LLC mode,

• PPPoE in VCMUX mode,

• PPPoE in LLC mode.

The modem has the advantage of being powered via the USB interface and therefore does not needs a main power unit or a power cable.

The SAGEM F@st™ 800 / 840 has the following two interfaces:

¾ USB interface

¾ Remote network interface (ADSL)
