XPort AR Embedded Processor Module A fully programmable device computing platform based on corporate IT standards Cisco -like CLI, XML, RSS Web-enable up to three electronic devices, quickly and easily Provide robust data center grade security, including SSL and SSH, for all networked devices Offer true IEEE 802.3af compliant pass-through Power over Ethernet (PoE) The Flexible, Programmable Device Computing Platform for Building Intelligent, Highly Secure and Network-ready Devices The size of a few sugar cubes, XPort Architect (AR) A New Era of Machine Intelligence Enabling Scalable, Intelligent and Autonomous Devices is the first device server solution that goes beyond simple network connectivity to deliver an enterprise- As more devices are added to the network, it is increasingly necessary that they are equipped with a certain level of grade, programmable device computing and intelligence so they can operate more autonomously. It is not networking platform. cost-effective or practical to have humans monitoring all of the edge equipment on M2M and enterprise networks. This Embedded Processor Module builds on our To make this edge to enterprise network a reality, the M2M proven XPort serial-to-Ethernet/IP technology that devices need to operate with the same standards as traditional enables device manufacturers to add Ethernet or IP networking equipment found in the IT data center such as connectivity as a standard feature to their products. servers, routers and switches. XPort AR with Evolution OS embedded processor module offers XPort AR includes all the essential device standards-based device computing and networking capability. It computing and networking features built into a makes the M2M network scalable by adding an unprecedented level of device intelligence and policy making single RJ45 package including a 120Mhz DSTni at the network edge. XPort AR is essentially an IP computer built processor, 10/100 Base-T/TX Ethernet connection, into the device which provides the ability to gather, process and an embedded web server and a full network communicate information and then take the appropriate pre- operating system, including TCP/IP protocol stack. programmed actions. More than just a networking co-processor, it offers: Featuring Evolution OS ,our powerful, real-time embedded A powerful 120 MHz processor Networking Operating System, XPort AR now offers the ability to Two serial data ports and one console port deliver an unprecedented level of intelligence to run a 11 configurable GPIO pins networked device. And with new Evolution 3.0, its even more robust. It features an extensible, open standards-based software 230 Kbps serial data rate platform for managing the device and delivering information 1.25 MB of SRAM and 4 MB Flash over the enterprise network with data-center grade security including SSH and SSL support. The XPort AR also delivers IEEE 802.3af compliant pass-through Power over Ethernet (PoE). Embedded Processor Module XPort AR Machine2Mainstream Integrating Machines and Corporate IT Systems New Evolution 3.0 delivers: AJAX based web manager and HTTP server The benefits of integrating edge M2M networked devices into Support for compressed firmware images traditional corporate or enterprise network are tremendous. Allows larger, more complex SDK applications to be written A unified corporate and M2M network reduces operations costs by SNMP v2c agent with more effectively leveraging IT investments. Additionally, this MIBII Support integration differentiates a companys product or service with RS232 MIB using SDK increased or added value and helps facilitate opportunities such as: Ability to create custom MIB in SDK Asset tracking/accounting (Sarbanes-Oxley compliance) New faster, lightweight kernel Workflow improvement/monitoring/reporting Flash wear leveling and erase cycle statistics Proactive maintenance services PPP works with Windows, Linux, BSD Preemptive diagnosis Syslog support Fulfillment services New Software Development Kit (SDK) that exposes more modules Network-enabled devices increase profits over the lifecycle of equipment, enabling companies to make better use of the most Cisco-like CLI important asset afforded by the networked equipment: the data Making the edge-to-enterprise vision a reality, XPort AR with gathered and information gleaned. Evolution OS uses industry-standard tools for configuration, communication and control. It uses Cisco-like command line Open Standards Extensible Technologies interface (CLI) with syntax similar to that used by data center As IT managers are increasingly being asked to integrate equipment such as routers and hubs. M2M edge-networked devices at a corporate level, it is XML-based Architecture and Device Control important that the tools, technology and architecture on those A fundamental building block for the future growth of M2M edge devices meet current data center equipment standards. networks, XML is a standard tool for web services, data transfer It is also important that they are easy to integrate and built on and rich content management that encapsulates data into a text- extensible and open software technologies. based format. XML-based configuration and setup records in The Evolution OS Networking Operating System features key XPort AR make the device configuration transparent to users and integration capabilities including: administrators and easy to edit with a standard text or XML editor. Cisco-like CLI configurability (Microsoft , for example, already incorporates XML capabilities XML data transport and configurability into the Office software suite.) RSS information feeds RSS RSS is a rapidly emerging technology used to stream and manage on-line content. RSS support enables users to configure the XPort AR to automatically send back real-time device information over the network to a database. More powerful than simple email alerts, RSS uses XML as an underlying transport and adds intelligence to the networked device while not taxing already overloaded email systems. XPort AR also supports standard SMTP email. PoE (Power over Ethernet) XPort AR is the first device server to deliver true IEEE 802.3af compliant pass-through Power over Ethernet (PoE) to edge devices using both Ethernet pairs. Eliminating the need for an external power supply and associated electrician labor costs, XPort AR is ideally suited to add networking functionality in security control, medical, financial, energy metering and building automation applications.
