software controls the communications processes and the data
transfer itself, including the simultaneous use of the two B
channels, for example. Data interchange in a given ISDN service
is handled by the appropriate data protocol. Both commu-
nication partners must support the same data protocol, such
as HDLC transparent for Internet access, T.30 for fax or X.75 for

SB drivers support all commonly used data
protocols. The driver passes data to and receives data from the
applications through a standardized interface, Common ISDN
API (CAPI) 2.0. Third-party applications based on CAPI 2.0 can
thus be used with the

CAPI ensures that any

Driver Software Functions
The driver software with its CAPI 2.0 interface processes the
ISDN line’s D channel protocol and provides applications with
all the necessary B channel protocols (X.75, HDLC etc.). In
addition, CAPI 2.0 provides the features SoftCompression X.75/
V.42bis and SoftFax.

SB driver software also supports CAPI-standard
data compression in accordance with V.42bis for X.75 con-
nections. This data compression option yields faster throughput
for substantially lower connection time and costs. Data
compression is switched on and off by the ISDN application,
