Highlights
Proven Hardware Platform
All MultiConnect OCG-E models are based on Multi-Tech’s proven hardware design featuring our
SocketModem® cellular communication devices and an ARM9 400MHz processor. The hardware is optimized for
application development utilizing our CoreCDP Linux distribution.
Linux-Based Open Source
The MultiConnect OCG-E uses the OpenEmbedded framework as the base to provide a custom Linux
distribution, known as CoreCDP. This allows developers to cross-compile thousands of open source software
packages and to create custom applications in a very short period of time. In many cases, existing applications
can easily be run with little or no modification.
Carrier Approved
All MultiConnect OCG-E models are carrier and PTCRB or CDG approved, relieving customers the burden and
expense of obtaining these approvals independently. This also provides a faster time-to-market and improved
return on investment.
Embedded OCG Pin-Out
The MultiConnect OCG-E interfaces to your design via an 80-pin board-to-board connector giving you full
access and control of the numerous interfaces and peripherals. Local connectivity options include serial, USB
device and host, Ethernet, SPI, I2C. In addition, there are several user definable GPIOs, ADCs and LEDs that
can be utilized to enhance your products overall design. Also included are serial and JTAG debug ports to help
speed application development and debug.
Developer Kit
The Developer Kit allows you to plug in the MultiConnect OCG-E communications device and use it for testing,
programming and evaluation.
