Question about G4 Internal Modem

Status
Not open for further replies.
This may be utterly stupid.  My knowledge of Macs, while anyway very limited, is primarily limited to pre-G3 machines.  I just got my first G4.  It works fine, although I'm starting to question whether it was worth it for OS 10.4 (which I have on a core duo; I do not have classic mode on said duo, however).

Inside is a 56k modem - like wired into the motherboard.  There's a modem port in the back; but it's blocked by what (from inside the case) looks like a metal cube - so that one cannot insert a phone cord.  This doesn't really matter to me as I don't plan to use a modem or the G4 for anything specific; however what is that... what is the internal card?  What is it supposed to be used for?  Anyone have any idea what I'm asking here?  This is just pure curiosity.

 
Whoops, went to go move this without checking to see if a new one was already created. Closing as this is now a duplicate.
