1  Introduction 

The general purpose GSM/GPRS G-router is designed as an intelligent wireless data transmitter, 
which  can  be  effectively  deployed  in  sensor  networks,  smart  monitoring  and  monitoring 
applications.  Data  can  be  transmitted  in  "Push"  or  "Pull"  mode,  stored  and  aggregated  along 
preset  criteria.  Intelligent  monitoring  can  be  used  e.g.  to  monitor  modems,  installed  on 
corporate customer premises, providing a redundant link for wireless, backup, maintenance and 
support  purposes.  The  GSM/GPRS  technology  will  bring  immediate  benefits  such  as  online 
connections plus cost efficient, high-speed data transmission. The optional remote power switch 
can be used for an effective reboot of the connected equipment. 
 
The  G-router  can  be  customized  to  optimally  suit  customer  requirements  to  provide  a  reliable 
competitive solution for wireless M2M projects. The GSM/GRPS unit can be used in combination 
with  the  entry-level  D-controller  (Remote  Access  Console  Controller),  M-controller  (Remote 
Access  Management  Controller),  smart  P-controller  (Remote  Access  Device  Controller)  or  high-
end  Q-controller  (Quad  Remote  Port  Controller).The  G-router  comes  with  all  software  and 
hardware components needed to transfer data encrypted over wireless networks.
