- Allright I did it, I crawled under the desk through the cobwebs & dust looked
- at the info on the power module to my sportster 28,800 modem, this is what I
- found.
- Input:120V AC 60Hz 17W
- Output: 20V AC 500mA
- So I guess to answer your question it uses 20 Volts.
- I hope this helps you because I hit my head pretty hard coming out from under
- the desk I may never be the same. <:)
