GE MDS. There are several ways that these systems can benefit from
incorporating iNET equipment. The chief advantages are interface flex-
ibility (serial and Ethernet in one unit), and higher data throughput. By
taking advantage of its built-in serial and Ethernet interfaces, the trans-
ceiver is well suited to replace leased lines, dial-up lines, or existing
MAS 900 MHz data transceivers.
Replacing Legacy Wireless Products
In most cases, legacy radio transceivers supporting serial-interface
equipment can be replaced with iNET transceivers. Legacy equipment
can be connected to the transceiver through the
COM1
or
COM2
port with
a DB-25 to DB-9 cable wired for EIA-232 signaling. The
COM2
port
supports all standard EIA-232 signaling and acts as a data-terminal
equipment device (DTE).
NOTE:
Several previous MDS-brand products had non-standard
signal lines on their interface connectors (to control sleep func-
tions and alarm lines, for example). These special functions are
not provided nor supported by the iNET Series. Consult equip-
ment manuals for complete pinout information.
Supplement legacy wireless network with IP services
The iNET Dual Gateway model can support up to two serial devices and
one Ethernet connection at the same time. The serial interfaces (
COM1
and
COM2
) operate in two different modes: Connectionless UDP and
connection-oriented TCP.
In the UDP mode, the transceiver supports point-to-multipoint
serial-port to serial-port connectivity. In the TCP mode, it supports
point-to-point Ethernet/IP to serial port connectivity.
For further details on the transceiver’s Serial Gateway interface modes,
see
“CONFIGURING THE SERIAL PORTS”
on Page 61.
1.3.7 High-Speed Mobile Data
The iNET radios support high-speed data communications in a mobile
environment. Remote radios roam between different access points, pro-
viding seamless transitions and continuous coverage. For additional
information on configuring a mobile network, refer to Mobility Config-
uration Menu on Page 58.
