INTRODUCTION
This guide provides installation and startup instructions for the MDS
Orbit Managed Connected Router (MCR) shown Figure 1. The
MCR is a highly secure, industrial wireless solution for broad based
applications, including control center monitoring, well site pad
operations and video surveillance.
The unit provides wireless communication via multiple technologies
in a single, industrial package, without the need for additional
modules or add-ons. In addition, wired serial, Ethernet and USB
interfaces are provided at the front panel, reducing network cost
and complexity. Depending on order entry options the unit may be
equipped with a combination of Cell, Wi-Fi, and 900 MHz
unlicensed FHSS/DTS radio.
Units are offered in two different interface offerings; 2 Ethernet/1
Serial (2E1S), or 2 Serial/1 Ethernet (2S1E). The 2E1S configura-
tion is the standard model and is shown here, although most in-
formation applies equally to both configurations.
