Introduction
The EZ Connect Cable Modem provides high-speed Internet access over the the same
cable network system that brings cable TV service to the home. The data
transmission rate on the cable connection is asymmetric, in that it provides a higher
data rate in the downstream (receive) direction than in the upstream (transmit)
direction. Asymmetric operation is ideal for typical home and small office use where
files and information are downloaded more frequently than uploaded. This modem
has a USB connection which provides plug and play installation, and an Ethernet
connection that allows you to connect up to 16 computers with the use of an
Ethernet hub.
Key Features
• High-speed Internet access over a cable network system
• Data rate of up to 10 Mbps upstream and 40 Mbps downstream
• Always-on digital connection eliminates dial-up delays, and provides transparent
reconnection when initiating any network request
• Operation with cable suppliers is ensured by DOCSIS compliance
• Enhances security with DES data encryption
• Supports Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows 95, Windows NT
4.0, Windows Me and Windows 2000
• Supports up to 16 users through Ethernet connection
• Delivers USB plug-and-play installation and configuration
