Dear SySop
Thank you for your inquiring on the Hayes SysOp
Program! The Hayes SysOp Program offers a very attractive
full featured program for BBS System Operators. The Program
includes special SysOp pricing for qualified SysOps to
purchase hardware directly from Hayes at up to 50% off
retail price and software at up to 65% off retail price.
The ONLINE WITH HAYES BBS (1-800-US-HAYES) is your
toll-free source for Hayes Technical Support. This allows
you full access to all the Technical notes and bulletins
within the Hayes File Library. Once we receive your order
for any Hayes high speed modem you will be granted toll-free
access to the SysOp's Forum. To preview the SysOp's Forum
you may call on the toll line at 404-HI-MODEM
(404-446-6336). The SysOp's Forum contains a variety of
SIGs with files and information on most of the popular BBS
software packages. Hayes maintains close contact with many
BBS software authors and other software developers within
the BBS community to insure full-functionality when used
with their communications products.
The ULTRA 96 features full CCITT V.32 compliance for
high speed connections with any other manufacturer's modem
that also supports V.32. The ULTRA 96 sells to SysOps for $399.
The ULTRA 144 features full CCITT v.32bis compliance for
high speed connections with any other manufacturer's modem
that also supports v.32bis. The ULTRA 144 will sell to
SysOps for $599 when it starts shipping later this year.
Thank you for considering a Hayes modem for your BBS!

Hayes ULTRA 96
ULTRA 96 includes a complete set of the most advanced CCITT
standards and supports the most frequently-used modem
industry technologies. ULTRA 96 with CCITT V.32 provides
9600 bps modulation enhanced with CCITT V.42 error-control
and V.42bis data compression for throughput up to 38.4 Kbps.
Offering 16 times the speed of 2400 bps, ULTRA 96 provides
unique high performance features that are not found as a
complete offering in any other product. These unique
features include Hayes AutoSync, Express 96 (formerly known
as Hayes fast turnaround "Ping Pong" protocol), CCITT X.32
(Dial X.25) with Hayes AutoStream, MI/MIC, and CCITT V.25bis
for synchronous autodialing. The modem also provides
backward compatibility with MNP 2-5, Hayes Adaptive Data
Compression, and LAPB error-control to provide a migration
path to CCITT V.42 and V.42bis. By supporting Express 96,
ULTRA 96 will communicate with the installed base of
V-series Smartmodem 9600 modems.
MODULATION
CCITT V.32 - Provides high-speed 9600 and 4800 bps
communications using CCITT V.32 modulation. ULTRA 96
implements Trellis Encoding/Viterbi Decoding, a V.32 forward
error correcting technique which allows the modem to
transmit data accurately at high speeds, even across noisy
telephone lines. Supports V.32 Automode definition for
fallback from V.32 to lower speeds.
Express 96 - A modulation that enables ULTRA 96 to
communicate at 9600 and 4800 bps with the installed base of
Hayes V-series Smartmodem 9600s. Express 96 is a Hayes
proprietary modulation that simulates full-duplex 9600 bps
operation. (Express 96 was formerly known as Hayes fast
turnaround "Ping Pong" protocol.)
International Data Transmission Standards - In addition to
CCITT V.32 (9600 and 4800 bps) compliance, ULTRA 96 also
supports V.22bis (2400 bps), V.23 (1200/75 and 75/1200 bps),
V.22 (1200 bps), and V.21 (300 bps) transmissions.
Industry Data Transmission Compatibility - ULTRA 96 also
supports communication with 103 (300 bps) and 212A (1200
bps) modems.
ERROR CONTROL
CCITT V.42 - Supports standardized,
point-to-point error-control communications using the CCITT
V.42 LAPM (Link Access Procedure for Modems) protocol.
CCITT V.42's alternative protocol provides backward
compatibility with modems using MNP 2-4.
V-series LAPB - ULTRA 96 provides error-control
compatibility with the installed base of V-series modems
using Link Access Procedure Balanced (LAPB). In addition,
LAPB provides link-level error-control for access to Packet
Switched Networks using X.32 (Dial X.25).
DATA COMPRESSION
CCITT V.42bis - CCITT V.42bis international data compression
standard for use by modems incorporating the V.42 LAPM
error-control standard provides compression capabilities to
4:1 enabling ULTRA 96 to achieve throughput to 38.4 Kbps.
Hayes Adaptive Data Compression (ADC) - ULTRA 96 implements
ADC with the early installed base of V-series system
products to attain compression capability to 2:1 for
throughput up to 19.2 Kbps. MNP 5 - ULTRA 96 provides a
migration path to V.42bis data compression by supporting
backward compatibility with modems using MNP 5 for up to 2:1
compression.
TELEPHONE LINE INTERFACE
Dial-up Line - Provides pulse or tone dialing out and auto
answering for Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)
operation.
PABX and Business Line Support - ULTRA 96 operates in a
variety of PABX environments and has selectable features for
operation with business telephone lines.
Leased Line - Two-wire leased line communication is
supported by ULTRA 96.
PACKET SWITCHED NETWORK CONNECTIVITY
CCITT X.32 Standard - Supports X.32 (Dial X.25) standard for
dial-up compatibility with Packet Switched Networks
worldwide.
Error-Control - Supports either point-to-point or
point-to-multi-point communications using X.25 Packet
Switched Networks.
Triple X PAD - ULTRA 96 provides a Triple-X PAD (Packet
Assembler/Disassembler) in the modem by implementing 1988
versions of CCITT X.3, X.28, and X.29.
Hayes AutoStream - Supports up to four simultaneous virtual
sessions using the Hayes AutoStream protocol to support and
manage the sessions.
Smartcom III( Communications Software - With Smartcom III
communications software, users are not required to learn PAD
commands. The program allows easy set up as well as stored
configuration for calling up CCITT X.32 (Dial X.25)
networks.
MODEM CONTROL AND OPERATION
Hayes Standard AT Command Set - Full support for this
industry standard enables ULTRA 96 to operate with the large
installed worldwide base of communications software.
Hayes Escape Sequence with Guard Time - Allows the modem to
reliably escape from the on-line mode of operation
(receiving/transmitting data) to the command mode
(interpreting the Hayes Standard AT Command Set) without
being accidentally triggered by transmitted data. U.S.
Patent 4,549,302 was granted to Hayes on October 22, 1985.
Automatic Feature Negotiation - ULTRA 96 automatically
negotiates with other modems to analyze all features
available (modulation, error-control, data compression,
etc.) to establish the most efficient communications
session. This powerful capability is implemented
transparently, making ULTRA 96 exceptionally easy to use
even though its feature set offers a wide range of
capabilities and communications options.
Automode - Procedures defined in an appendix to CCITT
Recommendation V.32 that allow modems with both V.32 and
V.22bis modulation to reliably interwork with other modems
which have either or both of these modulations, at the
highest speed in common between the modems.
Automatic Speed Buffering - Allows a V-series modem to
provide a fixed speed interface between the V-series product
and its DTE (mainframe, mini-computer, or PC). This enables
the V-series modem to communicate at varying speeds with
other modems while communicating at a fixed interface speed
if required by its attached DTE.
Flow Control - Works with systems equipped with flow control
to manage the interface between the modem and the system to
control buffers and preserve data integrity, preventing
inadvertent data loss between the modem and the system.
MI/MIC - Allows a system such as a PABX or a call back
security system to instruct the modem to go off hook and
establish a call.
CCITT V.25bis - The modem supports CCITT V.25bis
asynchronous and synchronous communications when required by
a host or an international regulatory agency. The modem can
be controlled through an optional command set supporting the
CCITT V.25bis international standard for asynchronous and
synchronous autodialing.
TRANSMISSION MODES
Asynchronous Hardware Mode - Supports standard asynchronous
communications for dial-up communications with value added
networks, on-line services, and personal computers.
Synchronous Hardware Mode - The modem supports SDLC, HDLC
and Bisync synchronous transmission for connections to
mainframes and mini-computers.
A PC using a synchronous adapter card is also supported.
In addition, the modem supports several methods of
synchronous autodialing, including CCITT V.25bis.
Hayes AutoSync - ULTRA 96 can use the system's standard
asynchronous communications port for synchronous
communications, eliminating the additional expense of a
synchronous adapter card for SDLC or Bisync. This
convenient feature brings both asynchronous and synchronous
data transfer capability to your system in one
communications device.
