1. Overview
The Expansion Card is a device that expands the functionality of a standard Fastrack Xtend
programmable gateway into a state of the art device for machine to machine applications. With the
Expansion Card, it is possible to utilize the Internal Expansion Socket (IES) which allows the Fastrack
Xtend to have a bigger application potential.
The Fastrack Xtend with an Expansion Card plugged-in may utilize one or more Plug-Ins of the Sierra
Wireless Software Suite. The Sierra Wireless Software Suite is the world’s most comprehensive
cellular development environment, which allows embedded standard ANSI C applications to be
natively executed directly on intelligent embedded modules.
