Product development of modem chip sets reflects the move toward standardization. The resulting technology is faster and cheaper. The most advanced modem chips incorporate both analog circuits and digital signal processing (DSP), with those faster than 2,400 bps being mostly DSP. Acquisition of modem equipment requires an assessment of need, overall performance, compatibility, integration, flexibility, power, error-correction and data-compression features, ability to combine fax and data trans...
