7 INTEGRATING GSP-1620 MODEMS
INTO OEM PRODUCTS
OEMs can buy QUALCOMM Globalstar GSP-1620 Satellite
Data Modems in bulk direct from QUALCOMM, then
integrate them into market-specific products. Bulk modems
come with antennas, but not cables.
As an OEM, you provide custom modem and antenna cables
as appropriate to your specific products. You must also mount
the modem boards in protective enclosures, which field
technicians can then install on-site, connected to antennas.
This chapter is intended for
OEMs who integrate GSP-1620 modem hardware into
products (for example, oil pipeline monitors)
Field technicians who install those products on site
It is assumed that OEMs and field technicians can work
directly from the technical specifications. This chapter
contains the following information:
Integrating modems into products
Hardware description of the modem, including
mechanical descriptions; specifications; Data, Control
and Diagnostic port signaling and pinouts; DC power;
and grounding information
Guidelines for mounting modems in enclosures
Mounting antennas on-site
Antenna specifications
Antenna cable specifications and lengths
