The Company
Ositech Communications, Inc. was founded in 1989 and quickly earned a reputation as superior designers, manufacturers and marketers of innovative voice and data communications products for personal computers.
ISO 9001:2000 Registered
Certificate #: 01148
The Products
In 1990, Ositech began working with laptop developer Compaq Computer Corporation to develop connectivity products for their notebooks. By 1991, Ositech had produced the first fully internal Data + Fax Modem and Ethernet LAN combination adapter with further revolutionary developments following shortly thereafter. The next step was to make these revolutionary connectivity solutions available to a wider market, and the burgeoning PCMCIA expansion slot market provided an ideal opportunity for Ositech to accomplish this.
In 1994, Ositech introduced their line of high performance Type II multi-function PC Cards. Named the Trumpcard series, these state of the art products quickly won many awards of excellence including two prestigious Windows Magazine Win100 awards, two PC Computing MVP Finalist awards and a number of Editor?s awards for various products in the line. The Trumpcard line has continued to evolve with the times.
Current high quality Trumpcard products include the Jack of Hearts II 56K Modem + 10/100 Ethernet and the CellFlex Wireless Dual Mode Data solutions, packaged as the King of Clubs (Dual Mode cellular data only) and the King of Hearts (Dual Mode cellular data + 56K landline modem).
The Technologies
One of the aforementioned awards was presented to the Five of Hearts, the card which introduced Ositech's revolutionary Digital Phone Interface (DPI) technology. DPI allows mobile users to be significantly more productive by not restricting their connections to only analog and cellular phones, but also allowing them to make connections through any digital (PBX) phone?the phones that most mobile users are exposed to constantly in offices and hotels.
With the increase in demand for DPI, and the more regular inclusion of 56K modems in most laptops, Ositech has introduced new PC Cards using their exclusive DPI technology. The Five of Spades, a DPI-only PC Card increases the connectivity found in your existing setup with DPI and CellFlex upgradeability while the Seven of Hearts, a DPI + 10/100 Ethernet solution, provides a total connectivity solution with digital, Ethernet and CellFlex upgradeability all in one card.
As cellular connectivity has grown, so too has the need for wireless data. While many companies offer simple solutions, these products work only in your home area network (usually digital) or while you roam (in analog coverage). Ositech?s exclusive CellFlex technology provides Dual Mode data to allow your Dual Mode cellular phone to make connections in either network area.
Future Direction
Ositech's goal is to remain a key player in the portable computer market connectivity market, with a focus on the importance of wireless connectivity. To this end, Ositech is continuing to develop new solutions for the wireless market with research in the fields of wireless data, and an exploration of integrated solutions to best take advantage of the ever-evolving wireless technologies. Future products will integrate multiple functions within a single PC or PCMCIA Card, thereby increasing the connectivity possibilities available to the end user with each Ositech product.
Ositech clearly realizes that it must stay at the forefront of technology to meet this goal, particularly in the increasingly competitive wireless market. Because of this, Ositech is pursuing faster and more efficient modes of wireless communication to bring greater connectivity options to their customer base.
