One of the most interesting cards in this roundup, the Ositech
Jack of Spades CardBus 10/100 + 56K Modem with DPI PC Card has an ace in the hole: its support for both analog and digital (PBX) and phone lines. Add to this the card's solid performance and bundled connection cables and you'll find that Ositech has dealt a winning hand.
The Ositech card uses a single Type II card slot. The separate, propriety 6-foot modem and Category 5 network cables plug directly into the edge of the card. Although all the cards we tested offer digital-line protection, the Ositech's
Digital Phone Interface (DPI) is the only one that allows you
to make connections over digital lines via the phone's handset. A special dialog box pops up to assist in making the connection...
Combining reliable performance with unique features such as support for digital phone lines and a
dongle-free design, the Ositech is one of the best choices for all of your communications needs.
