The MMT9000 is the first component of the MobileWAN family to be released. The MMT9000
is a rugged vehicle data-radio that provides Ethernet access to the IP-based internet. The
MMT9000 has been designed to be easily installed into a vehicle and be powered from a
vehicle's 12 VDC
1
power system.
1.1 MMT9000 Features
The MMT9000 is well suited for mobile applications in the following industries:
•
remote works sites,
•
private communications networks,
•
municipal governments,
•
public works,
•
large construction projects,
•
homeland security,
•
public safety (non life threatening),
•
industrial solutions, and
•
special events.
The MMT9000 is capable of delivering high-speed data, voice, and video. It can work with
VPNs and other security middle ware.
The MMT9000 is a mobile wireless modem that connects to the user's computer through an
Ethernet connection. It is intended to be installed in a vehicle and provides an interface to the
customer's computer or local area network on one side and wireless access to the LMS4000
network on the other.
The MMT9000, which acts as a network bridge, receives data from the Base Station
(MBT9000, CCU3000 or NCL1900)
2
over the 900 MHz radio link, and forwards this data to the
user's computer through the Ethernet port. In the other direction, the MMT9000 forwards data
received from the user's computer over the radio link to the Base Station.
The MMT9000 has a compact form factor designed for use in a vehicle, including emergency
vehicles. The MMT9000 has outstanding RF performance in a hostile mobile environment.
Temperature, vibration, shock, exposure to moisture and ease of installation have all been
considered in the modem packaging. Set-up and configuration is rapid and simple.
1. We refer to the MMT9000 as being powered by 12 VDC. This is by convention and
refers to the 12 VDC power system on most vehicles. The actual input power
specification is 13.8 VDC +/- 25%.
2. We will use the generic term “Base Station” throughout this document to stand for any of
the WaveRider 900 MHz base station products, the CCU3000, NCL1900 or MBT9000
