2.0 Product Description
The Orbit MCR and ECR are rugged networking routers providing comprehensive solutions for
IP/Ethernet, serial and machine-to-machine wireless communication.
2.1 Key Features
MCR units include the following key features:

Security
—The unit uses industry-leading security features to protect data while maintaining
compatibility with deployed infrastructures. Features include AAA user access with passwords and
lockout protection, VPN (IPSec), signed firmware, secure booting, integrity management and more.
NOTE
The Orbit MCR device is designed for high security environments. As such, management of the
device does not support Telnet, but instead implements the more secure SSH protocol.

Small Form Factor
—The unit is housed in a rugged enclosure suited for operation in harsh
industrial environments. It requires only protection from direct exposure to the weather and may be
easily mounted inside a NEMA enclosure for outdoor applications when required.

Network Interfaces
—Several network interfaces are present to provide connectivity for a variety of
equipment and applications. Ethernet, serial and WiFi interfaces provide local connections while a
cellular interface provides access to public carrier networks.

User Interface
—Multiple user interfaces are provided for configuration and monitoring of the unit.
These include local serial console, web, SSH and USB.
NOTE
For units certified and installed in hazardous locations, use only the serial or Ethernet
connections on the unit’s front panel. Do
not use the USB port in hazardous locations.

Network Management System
— Orbit MCR is supported by GE MDS PulseNET, a Network
Management System (NMS), providing monitoring of small and large scale deployment of all GE
MDS devices.

Tamper Detection
—The unit contains a 3-axis magnetometer that can be used to detect changes to
the unit’s physical environment after installation and generate notification of the change if it exceeds
configurable thresholds. See “Tamper Detection” on Page 179.
2.2 Interface Types

ECR units are provide external interfaces 1 Ethernet, 1 Serial and 1 USB.

MCR units are offered in three external interface offerings; 2 Ethernet/1 Serial (2E1S), 2 Serial/1
Ethernet (2S1E), and 4 Ethernet/2 Serial (4E2S).

The ECR and the MCR with 4E2S each only support one Network Interface Card. The MCR 2E1S
and 2S1E support two. Most information applies equally to both configurations.
2.3 Network Interface Cards (NICs)
4G LTE/CDMA (Verizon Only) 2.3.1
The 4G LTE module is capable of operation on the Verizon Wireless LTE/CDMA network (LTE 700
MHz Band 13) in the United States. The unit supports routing of TCP/UDP/IP data from the Cellular
WAN network interface to any of the other network interfaces using the IPsec VPN or network address
and port translation (NAPT) feature and to a serial port using the terminal server service. The
configuration of these use cases is specified in respective sections on VPN, Firewall and NAT and
Terminal Service.
Orbit MCR with this modem is certified for operation on Verizon Wireless LTE/CDMA (1xRTT/EVDO)
network (ODI certified) in the United States. In addition it is also certified for use with Verizon Wireless
