Embedded Serial-to-Wi-Fi Device Server
Universal Socket Benefits
• Interchangeable communications
devices
• Quick-to-market
• Global approvals
• Easy migration to future networks
The SocketWireless® Wi-Fi® device server connects serial devices to an IP network via 802.11b wireless networking.
It enables you to build wireless networking into virtually any device allowing for remote monitoring, control
and configuration. The space efficient communications device (1" x 2.5") integrates a complete TCP/IP protocol
stack, and can make your existing and next generation device, machine or system, IP-ready while you focus on
developing its core features.
Features
• Complete serial-to-Wi-Fi wireless connectivity solution including
network processor, media access controller and air interface
• Supports ad-hoc and infrastructure mode
• Wi-Fi security using WEP
• Serial interface supports DTE speeds to 230K bps
• Space efficient universal socket connectivity
• High performance processor runs ARP, DHCP client, DNS, FTP
client, ICMP (ping), IP, POP3, SMTP, TCP and UDP protocols
• Two LED driver outputs for visual monitoring of link and activity
• Configuration and management via AT commands

Highlights
Applications. The SocketWireless Wi-Fi device server will
wirelessly IP-enable any device to provide remote monitoring,
control and configuration of any system. It is ideal for:
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.

Serial-to-Wi-Fi Technology The SocketWireless Wi-Fi IP device
server provides the powerful ability to IP-enable serial
devices allowing more options for data acquisition, device
management, and industrial control than would otherwise
be available. The communications device integrates a
processor, proprietary operating system, TCP/IP stack, and an
802.11b wireless network connection to provide a complete
serial-to-Wi-Fi connectivity solution.
Quick-to-Market Solution. The complete, ready-to-integrate
SocketWireless Wi-Fi device server is certified by the U.S.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The FCC
approval is portable across any solution for which the
communications device is integrated, which means you
can use the Multi-Tech license and bypass your own 802.11
regulatory product testing. This alone will save you valuable
resources and dollars to allow you to focus on your product’s
core features, and accelerate your time-to-market.
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.
SocketWireless Wi-Fi Pin-Out. The SocketWireless Wi-Fi
device server interfaces easily with existing products
through a standard serial
communication channel.
The serial DTE channel is
capable of transfer speeds
to 230.4K bps and can be
interfaced directly to a
UART or microcontroller.
The SocketWireless
Wi-Fi device server
also provides two LED
driver outputs for visual
monitoring of link and
activity.
