NOTE: This feature requires both an external modem (most standard connection protocols are supported) and a dedicated phone line that can be connected to the modem for external access.

If you wish to use this feature through a PBX system, it may require some experimentation and additional support from your telecom services provider, and is not supported by StarTech.com.

Some modem manufacturers offer “enterprise” grade modem products that include technology to improve the stability of connections; whether this type of product would be beneficial to your application depends on whether you consider the modem connection to be mission-critical, the quality of your telecom infrastructure, and your budget for implementing this solution. The model of modem attached is essentially transparent to the CAB45
