Product Features
The NTC-3000 Series is a reliable solution for cost effective deployment in any data telemetry environment. Designed for reliable performance and universal installation it provides 3G
data connectivity for M2M applications enabling remote monitoring, control, management and reporting of industrial and commercial equipment.
The small and rugged form factor is ideal for applications such as metering, rail, road signs, security, transport and vending machines. It can also be used in SCADA (Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition) scenarios to monitor, control or collect data from remote devices such as farm machinery, water monitoring devices and wind farms.
A serial connection on one end and a 3G connection on the other allows the devices to simply take the serial data and send it over 3G. When connecting through the RJ-45 port to the
serial port of your device, the broadband connection can be established using AT commands in a terminal emulator or through the use of a Windows Dial Up Networking profile. The
modem also comes equipped with a Mini USB port where a connection can be established through either a virtual COM port or Sierra Wireless’s AirCard Watcher application.
The lockable SIM tray along with the rugged nature of the device means you can be assured that your device is working reliably, regardless of the physical location.
