The Telebit T2500 has V.32 as well as a host of other modulation schemes. They are Bell 103J, 212A, V.21, V.22, V.22bis, V.23, V.32 and Telebit's own PEP modulation. It can go as fast as 19 200 bps error-free using PEP. It supports UUCP, X/YMODEM, KERMIT protocols and can use PEP or MNP Class 5 error correction standards. It also does compression and supports the AT command set. Their number is 1-800-TELEBIT.
