Edevice introduces compact GSM/GPRS modem
Edevice
Cellgo modem
Edevice's Cellgo is a compact GSM/GPRS modem that allows devices with serial ports to connect to the cellular network.
Cellgo integrates a super-capacitor, enabling power-constrained products such as battery-powered devices to cope with the power peaks required during GSM/GPRS transmission.
The modem can be powered directly through the RJ45 serial connector for a single-cable installation or with an optional charger.
This cost-effective GSM/GPRS modem comes with a TCP/IP stack, all in a compact and stylish form that makes it suitable for a range of appliances.
Cellgo is also suitable for M2M projects, offering a short time-to-market option for connecting devices wirelessly.
Based on the Edevice TCP/IP stack, Cellgo includes - in addition to standard TCP sockets - a DNS client, an FTP client and an email client.
The company claims that Cellgo delivers a straightforward way to enable electronic equipment to communicate wirelessly.
The existing serial port is simply connected to the RJ45 connector on the Cellgo, allowing internet connectivity through cellular networks using standard AT and AT# commands.
Cellgo complies with RoHS requirements and reduces the carbon footprint needed for production and transportation.
It also uses less tantalum (by a factor of eight) compared with previous-generation products.
