Chapter 1 – Device Overview
Description
The SocketModem Cell and iCell HSPA+ models are complete, ready-to-integrate communications devices that
offer standards-based HSPA+ 21 performance. These quick-to-market communications devices allow developers
to add wireless communication and GPS tracking to products with a minimum of development time and expense.
Both models are based on industry-standard open interfaces and use Multi-Tech’s Universal Socket design. The
SocketModem iCell features the intelligence of the embedded Universal IP stack, which allows for
automatic/persistent connectivity for mission critical applications and enhanced M2M functionality.

Notes:
These units ship without network activation. To connect them to the cellular network, you need a cellular
account. For more information, refer to Account Activation for Cellular Devices in the Universal Socket
Developer’s Guide.
GP devices have a dedicated GPS receiver.
MI devices have multiple interfaces.
The complete product code may end in .Rx. For example, MTSMC-H5.Rx, where R is revision and x is the revision
number.
All builds can be ordered individually or in 50-packs.

Notes:
Radio performance may be affected by temperature extremes. This is normal. The radio is designed to
automatically fallback in class and reduces transmitter power to avoid damage to the radio. When this occurs
depends on the interaction of several factors, such as ambient temperature, operating mode, and transmit
power.
Mounting Hardware
The board has three mounting holes at corners. Use #4 or M3 hardware for mounting the SocketModem to the
board. Refer to the Mechanical Drawings for more information.
