They were, they got compressed with G.711 or G.722. In fact, that's why your 56kbps modem would often fall back to 38.4kbps or 28k8, until the phone company installed a fancy new exchange that demodulated the 56kbps stream and didn&#x2

K56flex was the one I had. USR modems were pretty expensive. But I think the next one for me was V.92 - not that it mattered greatly, because cable internet was around the corner. https://www.inetdaemon.com/tutorials/co
