Product description

The TC35 Terminal is a compact GSM modem for the transfer of data, voice, SMSand faxes in GSM networks. Industrial standard interfaces and an integrated SIMcard reader mean it can be used rapidly, easily and universally as a dual band GSM Terminal. Its performance band width and the robust housing make it easier to quickly implement new applications in areas such as telemetry and telematics.

The features, functions and interfaces of the GSM Terminal TC35 T are described below.

The functionality of the Terminal corresponds to the features of the TC35 module, to which a SIM card reader, an RS232 interface, an analog interface for the handset interface and a greater supply voltage range have been added.

All the external interfaces of the GSM Terminal TC35 T are integrated permanently in the housing. The plug-in connections are standardised and suitable for use under vibration.
