Modem Specifications

The International Telegraphic Union (ITU), Defines the standards. The 'V.xx' is the spec number, the title is in bold, a description in plan text. The term 'bis' refers to the 2nd version

V.13: Simulated half-duplex (switched-carrier) control.

V.17: A 2-wire modem for facsimile applications with rates up to 14 400 bit/s

V.21: 300 bits per second duplex modem standardized for use in the general switched telephone network

V.22: 1200 bits per second duplex modem standardized for use in the general switched telephone network and on point-to-point 2-wire leased telephone-type circuits: Synchronous/asynchronous data transmission, full duplex over 2-wires, 1200bps.

V.22bis: 2400 bits per second duplex modem using the frequency division technique standardized for use on the general switched telephone network and on point-to-point 2-wire leased telephone-type circuits

V.26bis: 2400/1200 bits per second modem standardized for use in the general switched telephone network

V.32: A family of 2-wire, duplex modems operating at data signalling rates of up to 9600 bit/s for use on the general switched telephone network and on leased telephone-type circuits: Synchronous/asynchronous data transmission, full duplex over 2-wires, 9600bps (fallback to 4800bps).

V.32bis: A duplex modem operating at data signalling rates of up to 14 400 bit/s for use on the general switched telephone network and on leased point-to-point 2-wire telephone-type circuits: Synchronous/asynchronous data transmission, full duplex over 2-wires, 14.4kbps, 12kbps,9600bps, 7200bps, 4800bps.

V.33: Synchronous data transmission, full duplex over 4-wires, 14.4kbps, 12kbps.

V.34: Synchronous/asynchronous data transmission, full duplex over 2-wires (2/4 lines, leased), 28.8kbps.

V.34+: A modem operating at data signalling rates of up to 33 600 bit/s for use on the general switched telephone network and on leased point-to-point 2-wire telephone-type circuits: Synchronous/asynchronous data transmission, full duplex over 2-wires (2/4 lines, leased), 33.6kbps

V.90: A digital modem and analogue modem pair for use on the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) at data signalling rates of up to 56 000 bit/s downstream and up to 33 600 bit/s upstream: (56K) Synchronous/asynchronous data transmission, full duplex over 2-wires, 56kbps. The V90 uses Pulse Code Modulation (PCM).

V.91: A digital modem operating at data signalling rates of up to 64 000 bit/s for use on a 4-wire circuit switched connection and on leased point-to-point 4-wire digital circuits
