What's in it for the SOHO user?

SOHO users need fast and reliable dial-up connections to corporate networks and on-line information services to access information they would normally have from their corporate LAN, like email and databases.

To satisfy the increasing demand for an efficient and economical work environment, the DIVA 2.0 is the ideal solution for users who are looking for a low-cost, data-only ISDN interface card to supply fast and reliable communications to the Internet and the corporate intranet.

Benefits
Worldwide Communication Ability The DIVA interface cards operate by supporting two B-channels for data transmission with transfer rates of 64kbps each, and one D-channel for call set-up, with a transfer rate of 16kbps. The D-channel protocols support major national ISDN-protocols. The DIVA ISDN interface cards are equipped with either an S/T interface or an integrated NT1 (primarily for North American users), which allows the U-Interface to accommodate the connection between the ISDN line and ISDN device. The support of D-channel protocols and the availability of both interfaces facilitates ISDN communications anywhere in the world.

Full WAN Connectivity When used in conjunction with the appropriate software, Eiconís DIVA ISDN interface cards allow remote stand-alone PCs to communicate with central site LANs, remote access distributed servers, traditional host computers, and on-line information services over ISDN. The DIVA interface cards enable clients to access networks at least twice the speed of the fastest analog modem.

Full CAPI 2.0 Compliance Eiconís DIVA ISDN interface cards provide an integrated solution that enables new applications to operate transparently over ISDN. This is accomplished by DIVAís support for CAPI (Common Application Programming Interface), an industry standard for cross-platform software compatibility. Any application written to CAPI 2.0* is supported by the DIVA interface card, making it a compatible and non-proprietary ISDN solution.
* CAPI 1.1 is only supported with DOS

Trace Diagnostic Tool The trace diagnostic tool for the B- and D-channels provides information about the cardís status in the event of a problem.

ISA and PCI bus Formats Depending on the bus requirements of the PC, the DIVA 2.0 and DIVA Pro 2.0 are available in both ISA and PCI bus formats.

Plug-and-Play Support With ISA Plug-and-Play support, in accordance with Microsoft/Intel standard, the DIVA 2.0 series of interface cards provide easy configuration of the card, ensuring trouble-free installation into the PC. The PCI Plug-and-Play support (compliant with PCI spec. 2.1) guarantees that the card is automatically configured through the system. There are no jumpers required and no switches to set - simply plug in the card and play!

EZ-ISDN1 Compliant All DIVA ISDN interface cards are certified for EZ-ISDN1 (North America only) which simplifies the ordering of ISDN lines. DIVA users can simply call a local service provider and request EZ-ISDN1 compatible service to set up their ISDN line.

POTS Enabled The DIVA 2.0 series of interface cards are POTS enabled, which allows these interface cards to operate with the DIVA POTS Option* allowing the use of existing analog telephone devices, including fax machines, over the ISDN line.
*Operates with Windows 95 only

Full Windows Support The DIVA 2.0 series is available with the ISDN Software Suite for DIVA, a CD containing all necessary software for Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows for Workgroups 3.11 and DOS. This CD also contains Microsoftís ISDN Accelerator Pack 1.1, Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0 and NetMeeting.

Rate Adaptation With V.120 rate adaptation, the DIVA 2.0 is able to connect to Compuserve and other on-line services.
