Multi-Tech Announces Cellular PCI Products for Systems Developers



MINNEAPOLIS, April 5 --- Single and Quad Modem PCI Boards in EDGE, GPRS, and CDMA Technologies for PC-based Systems

Developers needing cellular wireless data communications for PC-based systems can add it with minimum effort by using a PCI card. The need can be for a single line application in remote equipment for monitoring and diagnostics or for multiple line needs such as with SMS (Short Message Service) broadcasting. Multi-Tech(R) Systems, Inc., a leading US manufacturer of data communications and telecommunications technology in suburban Minneapolis, announces two PCI-based cellular wireless modem products to meet such development requirements. The new MultiModem(R) internal wireless modems will be available in one and four modem models using the universal PCI bus technology implementing EDGE, GPRS and CDMA cellular wireless standards.

"Adoption of cellular wireless technologies by the development community is occurring on all fronts," states Chip Harleman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. "We believe it will eventually replace dial-up lines in virtually all applications as pricing for the two services becomes closer. We all know that using an internal modem card is one of the cleanest ways to add a modem to a system. Higher speed cellular technologies also have the added advantage of, in many cases, being faster than dial-up. The two internal MultiModem wireless modems we are announcing today are continuing steps in our mission to provide the most complete array of cellular wireless solutions in the industry.

The new MultiModem cellular wireless modems are RoHS (Restriction on Hazardous Material) compliant products are based on the Universal PCI design with either 3.3- or 5-Volt operation, are tested for FCC, PTCRB, and CE compliance, and include drivers for Windows 2000, 2003, XP and Linux operating systems. They also include an SMA antenna connector(s).
