The Crocus High Speed (HS) is a new-generation manageable baseband modem for digital subscriber lines or private copper networks. The modem offers multiple user speeds between 48 and 144 kbps for operation over a single unconditioned, unshielded twisted pair. Through a powerful 2B1Q line-coding scheme and adaptive line equalisation, the Crocus HS covers long distances without the need for expensive repeaters or pair selection.

A complete range of plug-in interface boards makes the Crocus HS ideal for interfacing with almost any application. Not only traditional serial interfaces such as V.24, V.35, V.36, RS-530 and X.21, but also G703 (64 kbps co-directional) and direct Ethernet 10BaseT connections with integrated bridge or router functionality are available. All these interface boards can be exchanged in only a few seconds.
