BayPac Model BP-96A
LEGACY PRODUCT NOTICE:
Our BayPac modem series (BP-1, BP-2, BP-2M and BP-96A) is no longer supported
beyond the information found below and on other related pages of our website.
This is due to the fact that these modems have not been compatible with any
version of Windows released in the last ~20 years, and have been replaced by
much more capable hardware (SignaLink USB).
The BP-96A is an enhanced version of the BayCom Teams PICPAR modem, which
is sold in Germany as a kit. The Tigertronics design employs "surface mount technology"
which permits the use of robotic assembly, resulting in a vastly smaller unit with enhanced
reliability and lower cost! The unit comes completely assembled and tested. Extensive
documentation and the latest BayCom packet software is included.
This latest version of our 9600 baud modem is even more impressive than the first! At just
7/8" x 2-1/4" x 3" it's about the smallest thing on the market! Along with the
tiny size, we shrank
the power consumption too. The power consumption is now so low that the modem
can now be powered from
the computers parallel port, so no external power source is required in most installations.
For those unusual applications where port power is not available, we have provided an external power jack. The BP-96A
attaches directly to the computers parallel port and requires BayCom Version 1.6
(now included free!) or the AWG
Packet Engine (for Windows!). For you power users... The BP-96A can even run
simultaneously with your 1200 baud modem!
