Modem features
Table 1 – Modem features
3 different data
connection interfaces
Serial/RS-232/COM, Ethernet, and USB
Ethernet switch
Available on the BT-6x21 models only.
These models have
an embedded 5-port Ethernet switch.
Power-over-Ethernet
Models ending in EB (BT-6x01EB) are models with built in
power sourcing. Power-over-Ethernet compatible devices
can be powered simply by connecting it to the
modem’s
Ethernet port.
Autonomous &
persistent connection
management
Fully integrated TCP/IP protocols allow the modem to
connect autonomously to the packet network (Internet). This
feature enables capabilities such as: in-call diagnostic,
Serial-IP, stand-alone GPS, remote configuration and remote
firmware upgrades.
DHCP server
The modem’s DHCP server allows easy administration and
setup of the local network by automating IP address
assignment
IP pass-through
The modem can assign its WAN IP address to the attached
host, thus disabling the DHCP server’s Network Address
Translation. Even when performing pass-through, the
modem remains reachable for remote administration
through its reserved TCP ports.
IP security
The modem can be configured with up to 10 IPSEC tunnels
for increased security in communications.
In-call diagnostic
The user can get modem status information while in a data
call, without interrupting the data session
Serial IP
The modem can provide a reliable means of communication
with serial-only legacy devices. It can encapsulate data
coming from the serial port into a TCP or UDP packet and
send it to a remote server on the packet network or
Internet. It can decapsulate IP packets coming from the
network and send raw data to the serial port.
Remote configuration
The modem can be remotely configured or diagnosed using
BlueVue Device Manager or a terminal session
Remote firmware
upgrade
The modem’s firmware can be remotely upgraded using
BlueVue Device Manager software
Password protection
The modem
’s configuration
can be protected from tampering
by requesting the user to enter a password before the
existing modem configuration can be viewed or modified
