ActionTec Wins Design at Dell Dell Builds ActionTec 56k Fax/Modem Into Inspiron 7000 SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 11, 1998--ActionTec Electronics Inc., a leading manufacturer of data communications and wireless products, today announced that Dell Computer has selected ActionTec to supply the customized 56k-capable V.90/K56flex modem built into Dell's recently announced Inspiron 7000. Eliminating compatibility issues, the completely customized modem is configured and ready to go with the system. This removes the need for users to sacrifice the use of a PC card slot to stay connected. The first Dell notebook computer to offer a standard built-in modem, the Dell Inspiron 7000 is Dell's top performing multimedia notebook, providing the full power of a desktop computer. The Inspiron 7000 offers a 300 MHz Intel® Pentium® II processor, up to 8 GB of hard disk and a 15'' XGA active matrix TFT display. ''Dell has earned a reputation as a industry leader in service and reliability, and the Dell Inspiron line is well known for its combination of outstanding quality, performance, and affordability,'' commented Elliot Hadaegh, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for ActionTec. ''The selection of ActionTec to supply this critical component by an industry-leader like Dell is another major endorsement of ActionTec's quality and dependability.'' To ensure the modem would meet Dell's stringent quality, performance, and delivery requirements, Dell established rigorous criteria for the selection of the best vendor for this critical component. Supporting even the most sophisticated high speed data communication needs, the modem operates at up to 56 Kbps, and combines MNP5 and V.42bis data compression with MNP2-4, V.42, and LAPM error correction to provide full duplex operation with throughput up to 115,200 bps. The modem is fully compatible with all common modem standards to ensure reliable connections when lower speeds are needed. Speed is automatically negotiated on connection. In the FAX mode, the modem offers send/receive fax capability up to 14,400 bps and provides Group 3 fax support.
