The mTenna I/O performs the following key tasks in the operation of the ASM:

Connects the ASM (and the BUC in the KyWay™ terminal) to an AC power supply via a standard kettle plug connection from the mTenna I/O to your local power supply.

Connects the ASM to a switch or router with an Ethernet interface.

Provides a physical remote connection to the ASM for recovery.

The mTenna I/O has a user interface comprised of the following elements:

A Power switch on the back

A Status light on the front

A Recovery button on the front

The mTenna I/O is connected to the ASM through a single ODU interface cable.

The mTenna I/O contains the following ports:

I/O interface

Ethernet

Power

2.1.1 I/O interface

The ODU interface cable uses an 18-pin locking connector.

2.1.2 Ethernet

The Ethernet port is the primary M&C port and is a standard 10/100/1000 Ethernet. It supports multiple protocols for a web server (GUI), ACU-Modem Interface(OpenAMIP™), and an M2M (machine-to-machine) RESTful API. Installation engineers can make multiple connections through use of an external switch.
