1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Westell’s VersaLink™ Gateway adds reliable, high-speed, Internet access to your existing home or office phone
line. Your DSL connection ends the hassles of dial-up modems and busy signals. Installation is easy ... no tools ... no
headaches. Simply plug the VersaLink™ Gateway into the 10/100 Base-T port of your PC, apply power, perform
the simple software configuration, and connect your DSL phone line to the VersaLink™ Gateway.
This modem is capable of data rates hundreds of times faster than a traditional analog modem. But unlike analog
modems, Westell’s VersaLink™ Gateway allows you to use the same phone line for simultaneous voice/fax
communications and high-speed Internet access, eliminating the need for dedicated phone lines for voice and data
needs. The Plug and Play feature means that no user configuration is required.
NOTE: Hereafter, the Westell VersaLink™ Gateway will be referred to as the “VersaLink” or the “Modem.”
