“Dedicated Vertical” Modules

Our “Dedicated Vertical” Modules meet the very specific requirements of the market they address. The Automotive Modules meet the automotive industry’s rigorous quality standards, the highest on the market, and offer special features to satisfy this unique industry’s demands. They provide, for example, antenna diagnostic, a robust antenna connector and SIM access profile.
Our Tracking Modules most prominent feature is the onboard GPS receiver. The integrated GPS tracking service allows the location of objects, vehicles or persons making these modules optimized for fleet management and vehicle recovery systems.

Tracking Modules

GPS Position 48.1198674 (latitude);11.6017705 (longitude) sent on 1st July 2007. This is a typical message sent out by a Cinterion tracking module. The keyword is GPS which means Global Positioning System. This tracking service is integrated into the two tracking modules: XT65 and XT75. These modules are designed for all applications which have to provide a service center with the location of an object, vehicle or person, e.g. Person Tracking Devices, Vehicle Recovery Systems, Fleet Management Devices. The highlight of this product category is the logical integration of the GPS technology, which optimizes the combination of GPS with GSM/GPRS and even EDGE features. The two modules have a different set of features allowing seamless integration with individual customer requirements: The XT75 comes with Quad-Band EDGE and Java™ technology, the XT65 in comparison offers GPRS instead of EDGE.

Wireless Module XT75

The M2M tracking platform

 

Thanks to the XT75, the integration of tracking functions and the associated options is now simpler and cheaper than ever. The XT75 is the first module that links GPS and GSM technology logically which consequently optimises the combination of these two technologies. Add to that the integrated JavaTM Open Platform, which offers a complete application platform for developing complex M2M solutions. This means that applications such as vehicle tracking, personal emergency call systems, fleet management solutions and navigation systems can be brought to market within very short development times and for the lowest possible costs.

Thanks to Quad-Band, the module can send position data from any place around the world. Moreover, the XT75 features EDGE technology which can achieve data transfer rates of up to three times the speed of ISDN. The high data transfer rate is especially useful for applications such as navigation systems which can be augmented with additional services such as Internet services for the passenger or updates for maps and places of interest. Considerable cost savings can be made due to the fact that the module incorporates such components as a processor, memory and a large number of interfaces. The interaction with the JavaTM platform means that solutions providers can also benefit from huge cuts in the time needed for development.

The XT75 is also lead-free, thus conforming to the RoHS Directive (EU Directive on the Restriction Of The Use Of Certain Hazardous Substances In Electrical And Electronic Equipment).

Key features of the XT75:

  • State-of-the-art GPS receiver (16 channels)
  • Quad-Band GSM (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)
  • EDGE (E-GPRS) multi-slot class 10
  • JavaTM IMP-NG
  • Integrated TCP/IP stack
  • RIL driver for Microsoft© Windows MobileTM based devices

    And even after you have made your product choice, Cinterion Wireless Modules does not leave you on your own. The all-round support team provides help with all queries concerning product design - from design-in to support with regard to the JavaTM and EDGE technology to product approval.
