1. Safety instruction
Please, observe the following instructions:
•The communication router must be used in compliance with all applicable international and
national laws and in compliance with any special restrictions regulating the utilization of the
communication router in prescribed applications and environments.
•To prevent possible injury to health and damage to appliances and to ensure that all
the relevant provisions have been complied with, use only the original accessories.
Unauthorised modifications or utilization of accessories that have not been approved may
result in damage to the communication router and in a breach of applicable regulations.
Unauthorized modifications or utilization of accessories that have not been approved may
result in the termination of the validity of the guarantee.
•The communication router must not be opened. Only the replacement of the SIM card is
permitted.

2. Description of the router
2.1. Introduction
The UMTS router is a compact electronic device based on the UMTS module which
enables data transfers using UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA/EDGE/GPRS/GSM technologies.
Primarily, the router expands the capabilities of the UMTS module by the option
of connecting more PC’s by means of the built-in Ethernet interface. In addition, the firmware
of the router provides automatic establishment and maintenance of UMTS/HSDPA/
HSUPA/EDGE/GPRS/GSM PPP connection. By means of the integration of a DHCP server it
provides the user with simple installation and Internet access.
In addition, the router is equipped with a two USB 1.1 Host interfaces which is designed
only for connection to a USB device.
By customer request it is possible to equip the router with the XPORT module
and extend the function of the UMTS router about RS232, RS485/RS422, M-BUS or CNT (I/O
module).
The UMTS router has two versions. The first version is basic UR5i and the second
version is UR5i SL in the aluminum box.
Examples of Possible Applications
•mobile office
•fleet management
•security system
•telematic
•telemetric
•remote monitoring
•vending and dispatcher machines
2.2. UMTS technology
For radio terrestrial part UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System), which is
marked as UTRA (UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access), is warranted 155 MHz band in frequency
band about the 2 GHz. It are bands 1900–1980 MHz, 2010–2025 MHz and 2110–2170 MHz.
The UMTS system is based on code division of carried channels – use the access
method WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access). WCDMA exploit direct spread
spectrum DS (Direct Spread). For transmission the UMTS network exploits two duplex
techniques – transmission modes FDD (Frequency Division Duplex), which is based
on separate frequency channels (i.e. uplink and downlink uses different channels) and TDD
(Time Division Duplex), which is based on separate time (i.e. uplink and downlink uses one
channel, in which both direction are changes in time).
UMTS network consists of three basic entities:
•Basic network CN (Core Network) – own core of network UMTS,
•network UTRAN (UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network) – the radio access
network,
•users part UE (User Equipment) – entity, which allows the user to access
the UMTS network.

2.3. HSxPA technology (High Speed Packet Access)
High Speed Download Packet Access and High Speed uploďPacket Access are an
improved and extended version of the UMTS-TDD. HSDPA/HSUPA is available for both
UMTS FDD and for UMTS TDD. HSDPA/HSUPA raises significantly bit rate for downlink. It is
attained on the programmer level. It doubles capacity on BTS (Base Transceiver Station),
which allows process of data and signals from more users at one time. HSDPA/HSUPA are
based on a few innovations of network architecture; thanks to this, it has lower latency, faster
reaction on channel change quality and processing of H-ARQ (Hybrid automatic repeat
request) on transmission repeat. Transport channel for HSDPA/HSUPA effectively uses
available frequencies, on which transmits data packets together. Afterwards these packets
are divides between individual users according to specific algorithms.

2.6. SIM Card Reader
The SIM card readers for 3 V and 1.8 V SIM cards are located on the front panel
of the router. To initiate the router into operation it is necessary to insert an activated SIM card
with unblocked PIN in the reader. The SIM cards might be of different adjusted APN (Access
Point Name).
2.7. Power Supply
The router requires +10 V DC to +30 V DC supply. Protection against reversed polarity
without signaling is built into the router.
The power consumption during receiving is 1 W. The peak power consumption during
data sending is 5,5 W. The peak power consumption when USB port used is 15 W.
For correct operation it is necessary that the power source is able to supply a peak current
of 1,3 A.
