CeBIT 2002: New FRITZ!Card DSL USB - ADSL and ISDN Now Over Just One Cable

Berlin/Hanover (ots)

Burgundy-colored, weighing 96 grams, as big
as a cellphone and with the technology of the popular FRITZ!Card DSL
inside: that's the latest ADSL product from AVM. At CeBIT 2002 AVM
presents FRITZ!Card DSL USB, the first USB device to combine ADSL and
ISDN in one. Another special feature: The USB adapter uses just one
cable to connect to both the ISDN line and the ADSL splitter. The USB
variant of FRITZ!Card DSL offers seductively simple installation, and
the combination of ADSL and ISDN delivers the full power of the
digital line: fast ADSL access to the Internet, and the entire range
of ISDN communications including PC faxing, PC telephony, file
transfer, remote access and video conferencing.
FRITZ!Card DSL USB Including Full Software Package
FRITZ!Card DSL USB is equipped with a great number of technical
highlights for simple and convenient use: The new USB variant of
FRITZ!Card DSL connects the PC directly to the DSL splitter and the
ISDN NT, and is powered from the USB port, so that it needs no
separate power supply. Once the hardware has been automatically
detected by the PC, the installation software supplied sets up all
the necessary components. The product also includes AVM FRITZ! DSL, a
comprehensive application package for day-to-day DSL use. The package
includes software for secure, powerful Internet access, Internet
connection sharing and ADSL monitoring. The status of all connections
is indicated by ergonomically located LEDs. The complete product thus
contains everything necessary to begin faster surfing over ADSL, even
for beginners. ISDN services such as PC telefax, file transfer and
remote access are also convenient to use with the FRITZ! software
contained in the package. The new FRITZ!Card DSL USB in a LAN allows
several users to surf the Internet simultaneously. The USB device has
been developed using all the experience gained with the PCI
controller FRITZ!Card DSL, which has won the praise of users and
testers since its introduction.
FRITZ!Card DSL Active: The New Internet Service from AVM
At this year's CeBIT, AVM presents a new service offering. In
future, a new web site at www.avm.de/DSL/active will provide
comprehensive information for DSL users. All important topics will be
available at a glance from one location: updates with a version
history; current tips and application examples; a direct feedback
channel to the AVM developers; and contact to AVM support. A
five-year warranty period and AVM's familiar free support for the
life of the product make AVM's FRITZ!Card DSL USB complete.
More Security with FRITZ!web DSL
FRITZ!web DSL makes it possible to start surfing immediately, with
just a click on the Start button. FRITZ!web DSL can also display the
volume of incoming and outgoing data in a separate status window. The
monitoring software ADSL Watch provides detailed information about
the quality and performance of the ADSL connection. This is the first
program to make the ADSL technology fully transparent to the end
user. In addition to the data rates actually attained, the display
also indicates the protocols and the frequency spectrum used. In
short, ADSL Watch provides comprehensive monitoring of the DSL
connection at all times.
Investment Security and U-R2 Compatibility
FRITZ!Card DSL USB can be used on all providers' ADSL lines. The
controller meets the international recommendation G.992.1 Annex B, as
well as the  specifications of the U-R2 interface, the "T-DSL modem
standard" used by Deutsche Telekom AG. The new AVM product is also
ready for higher data speeds in the future, with maximum throughput
rates of over 6 Mbit/s download and 820 kbit/s upload.
