The Sierra Wireless MP modem provides a wireless network
connection for portable computers in vehicles or offices.
If the MP modem is installed in a vehicle, it typically is mounted in the
trunk and connected to a notebook computer in the passenger
compartment. A radio frequency (RF) antenna mounted on the roof
of the vehicle enables the MP modem to communicate through a
wireless network to a host computer.
A built-in Global Positioning System (GPS) module provides location
and heading data that can also be remotely monitored.
The MP modem has a rugged design that allows it to withstand the
vibration, shock, humidity, and extremes of temperature experienced
in the normal operation of police, emergency, utility, and field service
vehicles.
You can use the network connection provided by the MP modem to
access shared data, browse the Internet, and send and receive
e-mail and text messages. The MP modem also allows for sensors,
gauges, and alarms (such as panic buttons) to be installed in vehicles
and remotely monitored from a central location.
Network connections
The MP modem operates over the following networks, with
connectivity and speed dependent on your service provider and
account:
• High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA)
• High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA)
