Connectivity
Multi-Tech Embedded Solutions
Multi-Tech’s family of embedded solutions creates communication-ready devices by integrating data/fax or Internet
functionality into a single, universal socket design. Now you have the ability to provide remote monitoring,
diagnostics, data collection, or virtually any communication ability to your existing or new device via interchangeable
dial-up, wireless, or Ethernet communication modules.
Universal Socket Connectivity Features
• Flexible comm-port architecture
• Interchangeable socket modules
• Cost-effective system design
• Easy migration to future technologies
• Complete global compliance
The SocketModem's flexible comm-port architecture provides dial-up, wireless, or Ethernet socket connectivity with
interchangeable modules. This means you can utilize one system design and populate it with your communication
module of choice. In addition, you are assured a seamless migration to future technologies.
The Universal Socket Design
Each pin on a socketmodem corresponds to a particular function. The universal socket design provides a universal
location for each function pin. This allows each socketmodem to be used in a common developer's test board.
