DESCRIPTION
The xmodus AL6000S and AL6000S-3V Socket Modem Family provides the OEM
with a complete LAN data modem in a compact socket-mountable module. This
module enables any devices to send and receive data over the Ethernet network. The
IEEE 802.3u interface with auto-negotiation and auto-crossover is supported. The
module is fully approved and homologated and conforms to the CE regulations. This
gives fastest time-to-market to LAN-enable any devices.
The compact size and high level of integration of the Socket Modem minimizes real
estate and cost for motherboard and box modem applications. Its low power
consumption makes it ideal for a wide variety of embedded control applications. The
pin compatibility between the full range of Analog Series Socket Modems, ISDN,
GSM and LAN Socket Modems allows upgrading and production configurability
without hardware changes.
As a data modem, the AL6000S Socket Modem can send and receive data at speeds
up to 230’000 bps in transparent or Telnet modes. Protocols such as TCP/IP, UDP,
ARP, ICMP and DHCP are supported.
The very flexible IP protocol stack allows easy integration of user applications such as
additional bus systems (CAN) or serial protocols for automation systems.
Optional interfaces like SPI, USB or CAN are integrated for future expansion. The
standard modules support configurable I/O ports and ADC ports for monitoring and
control.
