Modem Emulation
In modem emulation mode, the XPort AR can replace dial-up modems. The unit accepts modem
AT commands on the serial port, and then establishes a network connection to the end device,
leveraging network connections and bandwidth to eliminate dedicated modems and phone lines.
Web-Based Configuration and Troubleshooting
Built upon Internet-based standards, the XPort AR enables configuration, management, and
troubleshooting by using a browser-based interface accessible anytime from anywhere. All
configuration and troubleshooting options are available via the web interface. You can access all
functions via a Web browser, for remote access. As a result, you decrease downtime (using the
troubleshooting tools) and implement configuration changes (using the configuration tools).
