} How about the US Robotic Courier (deff. not the Sportsters) } modems.. they support just about every protocol under the sun and are } nicely upgradable. They're nice in a rack-mount config too - 4 modems to } a card with the Total Control hubs - although the Windows management } software sucks eggs (I use Telnet to manage them rather than that piece } of rubbish). I'd recommend against rack-mount modems. I've used them in the past and always wished I hadn't once they get older. Once they get outdated single modems can be spread around and used in other places -- rack-mounts become large expensive boat-anchors. :-( Rows of single modems may not look as cool, but they usually make more sense.
