The StormPort 405 Modem
The StormPort 405 modem is used with an Ethernet-configured PC and an
ordinary phone line to access the Internet or corporate intranet at
multi-megabit speeds. The StormPort 405 permits simultaneous voice (or
analog data) transmission on the same telephone line. The standard telephone
cable provided in the installation kit can be used to connect a telephone, fax,
or answering machine directly to your StormPort 405.
The StormPort 405 is specifically designed to work with the Telematrix
Marquis series phone set. Other phone sets are not configured to work with the
StormPort 405.

The StormPort 405 Modem and the EtherLoop System
The StormPort 405 is a component of an EtherLoop system. EtherLoop is an
Elastic Networks technology that supports high-speed data simulaneously
with voice using existing phone lines. If the other network components of the
EtherLoop system have not been correctly installed, the StormPort 405
Modem will not work.
Contact your service provider or distributor technical support if you have
problems completing the installation.
Always-on Internet Connection

an “always-on” connection to a service provider or corporate Information
Service (IS) network. This direct access eliminates the time-consuming
dial-up sequence that is required by other modems and grants immediate
access to the Internet in addition to much faster upload/download speeds.
Factory-tested components
The StormPort 405 has been factory-tested. If you have a problem using the
modem, review the procedures in this guide. Contact your service provider or
distributor technical support if you have questions.
