Chapter 1 – Device Overview
Description
The SocketModem iCell intelligent cellular modem is a complete, ready-to-integrate communications device that
offers standards-based dual-band EV-DO Rev A performance. This quick-to-market communications device allows
developers to add wireless communication and GPS tracking to products with a minimum of development time
and expense. The intelligence of the embedded Universal IP® stack allows for automatic/persistent connectivity
for mission critical applications and enhanced M2M functionality. The SocketModem iCell intelligent cellular
modem is based on industry-standard open interfaces and uses Multi-Tech's Universal Socket design.
Product Build Options
Notes:
These units ship without network activation. To connect them to the cellular network, you need a cellular
account. Refer to Multi-Tech’s Cellular Activation site http://www.multitech.com/activation.go for step-by-
step instructions on activating your cellular modem.
GP devices have a dedicated GPS receiver.
MI devices have multiple interfaces.
The complete product code may end in .Rx. For example, MTSMC-EV3.Rx, where R is revision and x is the
revision number.
All builds can be ordered individually or in 50-packs.

The following is device specific FCC information. For additional approval and regulatory information, see the Universal
Socket Developer Guide.
FCC Grant Part 22 and 24
Power listed is conducted. The maximum antenna gain including cable loss for compliance with radiated power
limits, RF exposure requirements and the categorical exclusion requirements of 2.1091 is 5.12 dBi for part 22H and
6.12 dBi for part 24E. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance
of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not transmit simultaneously with any other antenna or transmitter.
This device is allowed only for OEM integration into host products. Consumer or end-user installation is not
allowed. End-users and OEM integrators must be provided with specific information required to satisfy RF
exposure compliance.

Certification of equipment means only that the equipment has met the requirements of the above noted
specification. License applications, where applicable to use certified equipment, are acted on accordingly by the
Industry Canada issuing office and will depend on the existing radio environment, service and location of
operation. This certificate is issued on condition that the holder complies and will continue to comply with the
requirements and procedures issued by Industry Canada. The equipment for which this certificate is issued shall
not be manufactured, imported distributed, leased, offered for sale or sold unless the equipment complies with
the applicable technical specifications and procedures issued by Industry Canada.
La certification du matériel signifie seulement que le matériel a satisfait aux exigences de la norme indiquée ci-
dessus. Les demandes de licences nécessaires pour l’utilisation du matériel certifié sont traitées en conséquence
par le bureau de délivrance d’Industrie Canada et dépendent des conditions radio ambiantes, du service et de
l’emplacement d’exploitation. Le présent certificat est délivré à la condition que le titulaire satisfasse et continue
de satisfaire aux exigences et aux procédures d’Industrie Canada. Le matériel à l’égard duquel le présent certificat
est délivré ne doit pas être fabriqué, importé, distribué, loué, mis en vente ou vendu à moins d’être conforme aux
procédures et aux spécifications techniques applicable publiées par Industrie Canada.
CHAPTER 5 – CARRIER SPECIFIC INFORMATION
SocketModem EV-DO MTSMC-EV3 Device Guide

Chapter 5 – Carrier Specific Information
Notice for Devices that Use Aeris Radios
One component of your device is a radio. A radio algorithm prevents your device from repeatedly attempting to
connect to the network when the radio:
cannot establish a packet data connection or
fails to access the application server.
When writing applications for your devices, ensure that your applications do not interfere with the radio's
connection retry algorithm. If you fail to do so, Aeris might block network access for your devices.
After your devices reach the end of their commercial lifespan, you must remove them from the Aeris network. To
do so, remove power from the devices and remove their antennas. If your devices continue to attempt to register
with the network after you cancel device subscriptions, Aeris can bill you for any traffic generated by those
devices.
