Information on Data Compression in Modems

Data compression is provided by some modem standards to increase the throughput on the modem link. Various MNP classes support compression, as does the ITU V.24bis standard. V.24bis uses Liv-Zempel compression.
     Under optimal conditions, data compression may increase the throughput on a modem link by as much as 400%.
