1. Overview
The RB900 Terminal is the complete modem solution for wireless m2m applications. Based on the Telit GE910, HE910 or LE910 module, it is available as penta or quad-band version and offers high level GSM/GPRS/HSPA+/LTE features in compact aluminium housing with all the standardized interfaces and optionally GPS receiver, configurable GPIO or memory card to store all measured data. Together with its small size and wide supply voltage range, makes it easy to integrate into all kinds of machines.
The RB900 terminal enabling voice, high speed data transmission, SMS and fax communication is a universal solution for all low-volume M2M and mobile data applications including metering, traffic systems, transportation and logistics, security, vending machines, and facility management.
Device can be controlled by standard AT commands or by customer's application inside (embedded Python Script Interpreter or “C” language), thus making it the smallest, complete SMT platform for m2m solutions.
This document contains full RB900 modem description and gives information about installation and using it.

5.2 External connections
5.2.1 GSM antenna connector
SMA “ANT” input is used to connect external GSM antenna. To establish connection with GSM network an external antenna must be used. Type of antenna depends on GSM coverage. In good circumstances (level of received signal is high) use antenna which is attached in the package. If range of GSM is low or none, an outdoor or indoor (for instance in place where GSM range is sufficient) antenna should be used.
Note: If there is no antenna connected to SMA connector, the connection with GSM network is impossible.
5.2.2 GPS antenna connector
SMA “GPS” input is used to connect external GPS antenna. To establish connection with GPS sattelites and check the coordinates of device an external antenna must be used and should be located outdoor.

5.2.3 Memory slot
RB900 can be optionally equipped with memory card slot to store all the measured data. The slot type is microSD. Memory card can be controlled only by Python script using special AT commands which is sends through SER2 interface, see chapter AT Reference manual and Python Script Interpreter.
5.2.4 USB Interface
RB900 terminal is equipped with USB interface (as shown below) – miniUSB connector type.

synchronized. 2 RD IN Receive Data (a.k.a RxD, Rx). Arriving data from DCE. 3 TD OUT Transmit Data (a.k.a TxD, Tx). Sending data from DTE. 4 DTR OUT Data Terminal Ready. Raised by DTE when powered on. In
auto-answer mode raised only when RI arrives from DCE. 5 SGND - Ground 6 DSR IN Data Set Ready. Raised by DCE to indicate ready. 7 RTS OUT Request To Send. Raised by DTE when it wishes to send.
Expects CTS from DCE. 8 CTS IN Clear To Send. Raised by DCE in response to RTS from DTE. 9 RI IN Ring Indicator. Set when incoming ring detected - used for auto-
answer application. DTE raised DTR to answer.
