The International Telecommunications Union (ITU)
decides the technical protocols that communications
devices must use to operate with each other.
Modems that comply with ITU standards can "talk"
to other standards-compliant modems and fax
machines worldwide.
The ITU has determined a worldwide standard for
56K* modem technology. With a U.S. Robotics
modem, you can get 56K Internet access from any
service provider who offers the ITU V.90 standard
or 3Com's proprietary 56K technology. 3Com is
working with providers everywhere to quickly
upgrade their service to the ITU V.90 standard.
