A modem is required for Avaya remote maintenance and administration functions.
Note:
If you do not have a maintenance agreement with Avaya or a third-party service provider, the modem is not required.
Systems configured for US customers are shipped with an external modem, the U.S. Robotics Sportster 33.6 kB faxmodem, and a set containing a cable and connectors used to connect the modem to the hardware platform.
Note:
Modems are not included with the software-only offer.
The external modem can be located on top of the hardware platform or on a separate equipment shelf. The U.S. Robotics Sportster 33.6 kB fax modem measures approximately 1.25 inches high, 6.63 inches wide, and 3.75 inches deep. The height of the external modem should be taken into consideration if you plan to mount the hardware platform in an equipment rack and you want to place the external modem on top of the hardware platform.
International customers must obtain a modem and compatible cable that is approved for use in their respective countries. If obtained separately, the external modem must use the standard Hayes command set (also called the AT command set) to be compatible with the default configuration of the Avaya IR system.
