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 timeto-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.
