Archtek's New Mwave V.34 Multimedia DSVD Fax/Modem For Affordable
Videoconferencing

CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif -- Archtek America Corporation has just introduced
SmartLink Mwave DocuPal V.34 multimedia DSVD (Digital Simultaneous Voice
Data) fax/modem, which allows two or more users to view and revise the
same document on-screen simultaneously from various workstations.
Revisions to the document can also be verbalized through the hands-free
microphone. All this over a single phone line! The versatile DocuPal,
designed to meet the growing needs of today's complex on-line
communications and multimedia capabilities, also includes telephony and
MIDI features. 

At the heart of the DocuPal fax/modem is the DSVD technology, which
multiplexes voice and data for simultaneous transmission over a single
phone line (POTS). The DocuPal automatically regulates the stream so that
data transmitting at 28.8Kbps without voice, automatically drops to
14.4Kbps when voice is added. When connected to another Archtek DSVD
modem, it becomes the economical choice for desktop videoconferening,
telecommuting, whiteboard editing and other emerging communication
technologies.

To reduce on-line costs, the DocuPal V.34 modem transmits at speeds up to
28.8Kbps, with maximum throughput of up to 115.2Kbps. The automoding and
dynamic rate renegotiation ensure the fastest available speeds, even when
connecting with slower modems. Transmitting at speeds up to 14.4Kbps, the
enhanced Class 2 fax is compatible with most leading fax software and
supports V.17, V.29 and V.27ter. 

Archtek's DocuPal fax/modem also offers a full-featured phone and digital
answering machine with remote message retrieval. Complete with a
full-duplex microphone, (which can be attached to the monitor, sit on the
desk or clipped to a lapel) the user is assured of hands-free
communication. A built-in discriminator recognizes incoming calls and
directs them to the proper function without needing additional phone lines
or equipment. 

DocuPal is bundled with ArchShare, a proprietary software which provides
support for simultaneous communication between up to eight workstations,
including full-featured whiteboard editing. 

Sound Blaster-compatible audio/MIDI functions support music, voice-over and
3D effects. With its CD-quality audio play, DocuPal can transform a PC
into a full-scale mixing board with simultaneous playback of multiple WAV
files. 

Backed by a limited five-year warranty, the MSRP of DocuPal is only $439,
with special quantity pricing available. An optional headset, with volume
controls, is available for $25. The fax/modem is compatible with Windows
95/3.1, DOS 5.0 and OS/2 3.0 (WARP) or higher.
