TP 750,755 - What is the 'CDPD' module?

Applicable to: World-Wide

Description:
What is the "CDPD" module that is available for the 75x product line?

Solution:
The Cellular Digital Packet Data module (P/N 71G2560) slips into the removable diskette drive bay. It provides a high-speed 14.4 Kbps data/fax modem and CDPD transceiver combined. It supports Circuit Switch data/fax over AMPC or PSTN, AMPS or PSTN voice, and CDPD communications. It includes BitFax, BitCom, and BitPhone software. The CDPD module is compatible with all 750 models, except the pen-based 750P.

There is an optional hand-set (P/N 92F1082) available to allow use of the CDPD as a standard cellular phone. For ultimate flexibility, there is an optional kit that allows the diskette drive to be connected externally at the same time the CDPD module is installed. The CDPD module may also be interchanged with the TV Tuner module.
