Embedded Cellular Modem
Universal Socket Benefits
• Interchangeable communications
devices
• Quick-to-market
• Global approvals
• Easy migration to future networks
The SocketModem® GPRS cellular modem is a complete, ready-to-integrate, communications device that
offers standards-based GSM/GPRS Class 10 performance. This quick-to-market communications device allows
developers to add wireless communication to products with a minimum of development time and expense. The
intelligence of the embedded Universal IP™ stack, available on certain models, allows for automatic/persistent
connectivity for mission critical applications and enhanced M2M functionality. The SocketModem GPRS cellular
modem is based on industry-standard open interfaces and utilizes Multi-Tech's Universal Socket design.

Highlights
Specifications
Applications. The SocketModem GPRS cellular modem is
targeted at applications that periodically need to send or
receive data over a wireless network. It is ideal for:
Packet Data Features
• Appliances
• Remote diagnostics
• Asset tracking
• Remote metering
• ATM terminals
• Security systems
• Automotive
• Vending/gaming machines
• Data collection
• Other devices requiring
wireless connectivity
• Industrial and medical
remote monitoring systems
Universal Socket Connectivity. Multi-Tech’s Universal Socket
is a flexible, comm-port architecture that provides cellular,
Ethernet, PSTN or Wi-Fi network access with interchangeable
communications devices. This means you can utilize
one system design and populate it with your connectivity
device of choice accommodating multiple connectivity
requirements. In addition, you are assured a seamless
migration to future technologies.
Universal IP. Multi-Tech’s Universal IP consists of a common
set of TCP/IP networking protocols and machine-to-machine
(M2M) applications implemented using a standard AT
command interface. Universal IP allows developers to write
their host application one time while having the freedom
to select from a growing number of Universal Socket
communication devices. (Note: standard models contain a
basic TCP/IP stack)
SocketModem GPRS Pin-Out. The SocketModem GPRS cellular
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.
Developer's Kit. The Developer's Kit allows you to plug in the
communications device and use it for testing, programming
and evaluation. The kit includes one development board with
RS-232 DB-25 connector, universal power supply, antenna
and RS-232 cable.
