System Overview 

 

TMN-51T is a plug and play RS232 to GPRS gateway. It can easily retrofit a traditional 
serial communication system to a more advance GPRS platform. Remote devices can be 
centrally  managed  without  upgrading  the  device  firmware  and  central  software.  Unlike 
those systems that the devices are centrally  managed via PSTN or GSM dial up  line or 
lease line, TMN-51T can be a more cost economical solution to achieve an “always on” 
data link network.  
 
Note: TMN-51T may be able to use with 3G SIM card/data plan seamlessly but subjected 
to Telco‟s offering. 
Hence, our customers may enjoy the economical 3G data plan for higher data bandwidth 
package.
