Model 5590CF

The Model 5590CF provides an extensive range of networking and Internet access features in a
surprisingly affordable product. Advanced security features protect sensitive data in the home or
office. Setup and management are extraordinarily easy, and wireless connections are made
with superior range and speed. Both ADSL and ADSL 2/2+ protocols are supported and
automatically negotiated to ensure easy installation and a long useful life for the product.

An Installation Wizard makes setup a snap, with an auto configuration option that will automati­cally configure the DSL settings used by your service provider. Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
provides easy Local Area Networking configuration and operation

The Model 5590CF makes it easy to provide multiple levels of guaranteed upstream bandwidth
for prioritized devices. One or more physical ports on the X6 is designated as the source for
prioritized traffic. A gaming adapter, Voice over IP telephone adapter or other device plugged
into those ports is then provided with the guaranteed upstream bandwidth selected by the user.

The 802.11g wireless access point provides flexible networking with freedom to roam. With
Zoom 125 Speed Booster, wireless data rates can reach 125 Mbps*. The Model 5590CF is
also completely compatible with 802.11g from other manufacturers operating at 54 Mbps.
Unlike other wireless access points, the Model 5590CF can support concurrent connections to
both 802.11(b) and (g) devices without compromising the data rate of the higher speed
devices.

Wireless security meets Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) standards as well as Wired
Equivalency Protection (WEP). Other advanced wireless features include Wireless Distribution
System (WDS) to support wireless repeaters/range extenders, and Wireless Multimedia
Extensions (WME) to provide Quality of Service (QoS) for Voice over IP and other applications.

Per-port PVC (Private Virtual Channel) is supported with multiple channels and downstream ATM
QoS to allow delivery of multimedia services by Internet Service Providers.

Zoom ADSL gateways are backed by a two year warranty and over 29 years of experience in
the design and support of communications products.
