What Is This Tool?
This converter helps transform data transfer rates from modem (2400), a classic low-speed dial-up standard, into ISDN (dual channel), which uses both B channels for higher throughput. It's ideal for comparing or upgrading legacy telecommunication speeds.

Common Use Cases
-
Upgrading from old dial-up modem speeds to higher-bandwidth ISDN configurations
-
Evaluating legacy telecommunication equipment in retro-computing or testing
-
Planning network upgrades in the telecommunications industry
-
Assessing remote monitoring or telemetry system data rates during improvements
-
Using ISDN dual channel bonding for combined data throughput
Tips & Best Practices
-
Consider the approximate nature of descriptive data-transfer rates when interpreting results
-
Remember that real-world throughput can differ due to protocol and overhead effects
-
Ensure both ISDN B channels are bonded to achieve the combined throughput shown
-
Use examples as guides for converting different modem (2400) values
-
Check equipment compatibility when upgrading from modem (2400) to ISDN services
Limitations
-
Conversion rates reflect descriptive speed classifications rather than exact SI units
-
Actual data throughput may vary due to communication protocol overhead
-
ISDN dual channel assumption requires bonding both B channels, single channel differs
-
Conversion does not account for network latency or error correction influences
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does modem (2400) represent?
-
Modem (2400) denotes a data transfer rate of 2400 bits per second, typically from early dial-up modem standards like ITU‑T V.22bis.
-
What is ISDN (dual channel)?
-
ISDN (dual channel) uses both 64 kbit/s B channels of an ISDN Basic Rate Interface bonded together for a combined transfer rate of about 128 kbit/s.
-
Why convert from modem (2400) to ISDN (dual channel)?
-
Conversion is useful for upgrading or comparing older low-bandwidth modem speeds to faster, bonded ISDN telecommunication services.
-
Are the conversion values exact?
-
No, the values approximate descriptive data rates rather than precise SI units and actual throughput can vary.
Key Terminology
-
Modem (2400)
-
A descriptive speed classification for modems operating at 2400 bits per second, typical of early dial-up standards.
-
ISDN (dual channel)
-
The configuration using two bonded 64 kbit/s B channels on an ISDN Basic Rate Interface to provide approximately 128 kbit/s data throughput.
-
B Channel
-
A 64 kbit/s bearer channel in ISDN used for carrying voice or data.
