1 Overview
The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines allowing an integrator to design a host
product that uses the “Raptor” MCM (Meter Communications Module) and ensures that the
system meets all of its technical objectives and requirements.
1.1 ULP Wireless Network
The On-Ramp Wireless ULP network is comprised of Nodes (such as Raptor) and Access Points
(AP) and operates in the unlicensed 2.4 ISM band. The Raptor circuit card is designed to easily
integrate into electric meters, through standard interfaces, enabling robust wireless
communication with one or more Access Points interfaced with a service provider’s local or wide
area network.
