Henderson Communications Lab Competitive Product Testing Henderson Communications Labs tested the 3 CXM 756 against the competition. Summary of Conclusions HCL’s testing showed that the 3 Com Megahertz PC Card modem, model 3 CXM 756, achieved consistently higher throughput than the others, across the network model, on each RAS tested. In some RAS configurations, the Xircom and IBM products failed to achieve true V. 90 speeds over 50% or more of the network model. By contrast, the 3 Com product achieved true V. 90 speeds 70% to 80% of the time, making it the only viable choice for users who require maximum return on their V. 90 modem investment.
