2.PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The MIUPowerPortX.X Series are industrial grade dial and leased line modems for connection to the Public Switched Telephone Network.. They can be powered from a wide range of AC and DC power supplies, they are internally surge protected on both the power and analog lines, and they will operate in temperatures from -40 to +85 deg C.

Internally, each unit consists of a baseboard and a communication module. The baseboard includes the power supply regulation and surge protection. The communication module is a Telenetics™ Pony Express™ Dial Modem Module.

The MIU PowerPort is packaged specifically for the harsh environments found in utility substations, industrial facilities and remote sites. Though functionally similar to commercial modems, the MIU PowerPort includes special features that make it particularly well suited for utility and industrial applications:

Environment: The MIU PowerPort has been designed specifically for use in harsh environments. In addition to an extended temperature range (-40 to +85º C), the MIU includes surge, shock, vibration, and safety features superior to those of conventional commercial modems.

Power Supply: The MIU PowerPort can be powered from a range of AC and DC power sources: +5 VDC, 12 VDC Battery, 7 to 16 VAC or 8 to 16 VDC. An optional 120 VAC wall transformer is available from Telenetics.

Low Power: The MIU PowerPort dial modems can be configured to enter into a “power down” mode. In this mode, an MIU PowerPort will consume only a small fraction of its active power while waiting for either controller or telephone line activity.
