It's a Motorola i2s modem, completly unsupported under Linux:

They have proprietary drivers for x86 Linux, but not for ppc. And I
already asked them, even offered to help porting the code, but all I got
in response was a polite answer thanking me for the interest in Motorola
products.
In other words, forget it. You'll have to either boot into OSX to
connect (that's what I do on the rare occasions I need connectivity
while being in a hotel room), or buy a Linux supported USB or PCMCIA
modem (and you'll have to find a real modem (== expensive), because
there seems to be no soft modem supported under Linux/ppc, even with
proprietary drivers).
