Hayward, California, December 1994 -- Zypcom, Inc. announces two new V.34
(28.8Kbps) high-speed modems: the top-or-the-line Z34-SX and the
lower-cost Z34-SE. The Z34-SX is a flash EPROM-based design That
simplifies updates or enhancements with on-line downloads of new modem
operating software. It operates on dial-up and 2- or 4-wire leased lines.
The Z34-SE is a PROM-based design and offers a lower price point. The
Z34-SE operates on dial-up lines only. Both modems can transfer data as
fast as 230.4Kbps with compression and as fast as 28.8Kbps without
compression (33.6Kbps with ACS). Zypcom's "corporate-class" modems are
designed for data communication professionals worldwide and can be used
across MS-DOS- and Windows-based PCs, Apple Macintosh systems, UNIX
workstations, AS/400 minicomputers and LAN communication servers and
routers.

The Z34-SX targets buyers who need 28.8Kbps (V.34) and raster data transfer
speeds with simple upgradeability for both dial-up and leased-line
applications. Zypcom's Z34SX and its downloadable modem software
technology eases the expected interoperability difficulties associated
with deployment of the new ITU-T V.34 modem standard. The Z34-SE targets
buyers who need a dial-up modem with 28.8Kbps (V.34) and raster data
transfer speeds and corporate-class features. The Z34-SE, with remote
configuration features, a full complement of security options, V.25bis
autodialing and a Z960NM management system interface, provides data
communication managers with the required features.

Both modems offer compatibility with all applicable ITU-T and Bell
standards, including V.34, V.32bis, V.32, V.22bis, V.23, V.22, V.21, 212A,
and 103 for data transfers. Both modems also include compatibility with
the public domain's V.32terbo modulation scheme. Error correction and data
compression support cover MNP Classes 2-5, as well as V.42 and enhanced
(8: 1) V.42bis. Facsimile support includes Group 111, V.17, V.29, V.27ter
and V.33. And from a software interrace point Or view, the modems support
V.25bis and Hayes-AT-compatible autodialer commands and EIA-578/592
Classes 1 and 2 for fax software compatibility. The Z34-SX also has an
integral Bell 801ACI-compatible automatic calling unit for mainframe
RS-366 dialing applications.

The Z34-SX and Z34-SE support fixed-speed and autobaud data transfers at
speeds ranging from 300 bps to 230.4Kbps. Line rates range from 300 bps to
28.8Kbps (33.6Kbps with ACS) and offer autorate fallback/fall-forward
capabilities. With enhanced V.42bis data compression for 8-to- 1
throughput gains, effective throughput speeds can reach 230.4Kbps.

Both modems include features that data communications professionals
demand-features not typically found on value-priced modems. For example,
the Z34-SX and Z34-SE support network management, callback and password
security for asynchronous communications, as well as link security for
synchronous communications. They also provide network managers with the
flexibility needed to deal with large IS installations where it is
important to be able to run diagnostics remotely, change modem options,
and pull down modem and line performance statistics.

The Z34-SX, which operates on both dial-up and 2-/4-wire leased lines, also
performs the automatic dial backup and call restoral functions required in
mission-critical, leased-line applications. When a leased line is severed,
the modem will automatically reconnect at the same speed via a single
dial-up line. The Z34-SX can also automatically restore the dedicated
leased-line connection when the line is repaired.

The Z34-SX modem includes one of the most generous warranties in all of the
computer business. For two full years after purchase, Zypcom will provide
a new unit in exchange for a faulty one within 24 hours of their product's
failure, with shipping prepaid by Zypcom.

The Z34-SX and Z34-SE are available now. The Z34-SX sells for $749. Fax and
communications software is available for Windows (Z34-SXW), DOS (Z34-SXD)
or Macintosh Z34-SXM) environments. New versions of Z34-SX modem control
software with all improvements and enhancements will be FREE. Registered
users can download new versions Or modem software in minutes from Zypcom's
bulletin board. The Z34-SE sells for $499. Fax and communications software
is available for Windows (Z34-SEW), DOS (Z34-SED) or Macintosh (Z34-SEM)
environments.
