2 TransNET OEM Integration Guide 05-3946A01, Rev. C
2.1 Transceiver Features
The OEM transceiver is designed for easy installation and flexibility in a wide
range of wireless applications. Listed below are several key features of the
transceiver which are described in more detail later in this guide.
• 902–928 MHz operation using the TransNET OEM 900
• 2400–2482 MHz operation using the TransNET OEM 2400
• User-selectable option to skip sub-bands with constant interference
• 65,000 available network addresses
• Network-wide configuration from the Master station eliminates most
trips to Remote sites
• Data transparency ensures compatibility with virtually all asynchronous
SCADA system RTUs
• Peak-hold RSSI averaged over eight hop cycles
• Operation at up to 115,200 bps continuous data flow
• Store-and-Forward repeater operation
• Data latency typically less than 10 ms
• Same hardware for Master or Remote configuration
• Supports RS/EIA-232 and RS/EIA-485 user interface
• Low current consumption; typically less than 3 mA in “sleep” mode
NOTE: Some radio features may not be available on all models, or limited by the options pur-
chased, or the applicable regulatory constraints for the region in which the radio will op-
erate.
2.2 Factory Hardware Options
There are a number options for the transceiver assembly that must be speci-
fied at the time the order. These include: antenna connector type, data inter-
face signalling and primary power.
2.3 Data Interface and Power (J3) Options
Table 1 below lists the interface options that can be specified when the trans-
ceiver module is ordered. If you are uncertain as to the configuration of the
unit you are using, please copy the model number code from the transceiver
module and contact the GE MDS Customer Service Department for assis-
tance.
