Appendix H

K56flex

The Toshiba internal modem uses K56flex technology with the

Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 operating systems. The modem is

capable of downstream speeds of 56Kbps (kilobits per second) when

connected to an Internet service provider that supports K56flex. As with

any modem, the actual throughput (speed of data transfer) depends on

analogue telephone line conditions, which can vary considerably.

Therefore, many users will experience throughput in the range of

32-44Kbps under normal telephone line conditions. Upstream data flows

at the V.34 rate.

K56flex rates can be achieved only when one K56flex-capable modem is

connected to another. The Toshiba Internal modem will select automatically

V.34 if the remote modem lacks K56flex capability or if a combination of

network and/or phone line conditions prevent K56flex connection.
