Integration Reduces Space, Power and Cost.
The SocketModem
GPRS wireless modem integrates the controller, RF
transceiver, antenna interface and SIM socket in one module.
This integration requires low power, low real estate and
provides an overall reduction in costs.
Reduces Development Time.
The SocketModem GPRS
wireless modem enhances your product while you focus on
developing its core features. It actually provides faster time-
to-market because it relieves the burden and expense of
obtaining PTCRB and RF approvals.
Internet-enabled.
The SocketModem GPRS wireless modem
includes an embedded TCP/IP protocol stack to bring
embedded Internet connectivity to any device. Using the
Internet protocols and the wireless connection to an IP
network, it sends and receives data over the Internet.
SocketModem GPRS Pin-Out.
The SocketModem GPRS wireless
modem interfaces easily with existing products through
a standard serial communication channel. The serial DTE
channel is capable
of transfer speeds
to 115.2K bps and
can be interfaced
directly to a UART or
microcontroller. The
complete on-board RF
transceiver interfaces
with an antenna for
direct connection to
wireless SMS,
circuit-switched
dial-up, or packet
data networks. It also
includes an onboard
LED to display network
status.
Universal Socket Connectivity.
Multi-Tech's Universal
Socket flexible comm-port architecture provides analog
dial-up, ISDN, wireless or Ethernet socket connectivity with
interchangeable modules. This allows you to utilize one
system design and populate it with your communication
module of choice. In addition, you are assured seamless
migration to future technologies.
