Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Actiontec PCI Pro 56K internal modem. The PCI Pro
incorporates the latest technology in controller-less V.90 modems for the PCI bus.
This technology improves the performance and capabilities of personal computer
fax/modems. The use of the PCI Bus frees the user from having to use an ISA slot
which is most likely already being used by another peripheral. Almost every PC has
at least one free PCI slot.

Host-based or “Windows” modems utilize your computer’s internal Central Process-
ing Unit, or CPU to perform some of their functions. The modem’s onboard digital
signal processing circuitry handles the most processor-intensive functions such as
V.90 and V.34 modulation, while the CPU handles more routine communications
tasks like data compression. This allows for fewer parts and greater reliability without
taxing the overall system speed. It also allows the modem greater access to memory
and disk storage space. As personal computers advance in speed and capabilities,
controller-less modems can take advantage of these improvements. Simply download
the new driver, follow the installation instructions, and reboot your system. In this
way, the performance of your modem improves as your PC hardware improves.
