RAM® 9000 Cellular RTU Product Highlights

Chapter 1 Product Overview

Using a single web-based user interface, our cellular units simplify I/O, network and security configurations to inte­grate complex hardware settings. This easy-to-manage configuration reduces the cost and complexity of deploying
and administering multiple devices at remote locations. Furthermore, an integrated configurable stateful firewall
provides intrusion protection and encrypted data access while a built-in Software Development Kit (SDK) enables
users to develop custom applications.

Working in conjunction with SixView Manager remote monitoring and control software, RAM RTUs provide low­cost, real-time access to outlying sites.

RAM® 9000 Cellular RTU Product Highlights

• Supports Multi-Carrier 4G LTE connectivity with fall back to 3G (and 2G for non-EU/JP Models)

• Real-time access to mission-critical data through built-in Modbus gateway

• Software Development Kit (SDK) for custom application support

• Native support for DNP3 and Modbus protocols

• Integrated security firewall provides intrusion protection

• Simplified deployment and configuration with single web-based GUI

• Support for new and legacy devices with RS232/485 serial or RJ45 Ethernet

• Powerful event engine that can trigger built-in I/O, send SMS text or email alerts based on real-time operational

data.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reason
able protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commer­cial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy;
and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interfer
ence to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to
cause harmful interference to radio communications, in which case the user will be required
to correct the interference at their own expense. Warning: Changes or modifications to this
unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.

Information to the user: If this equipment causes interference to radio or television recep­tion, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: In order to meet
FCC emissions limits, this equipment must be used only with cables that comply with IEEE

802.3. If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television
technician for additional suggestions. The user may find the following booklet prepared by
the Federal Communications Commission helpful: “How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV
Interference Problems”. This booklet is available from: U.S. Government Printing Office,
