Open Communications Gateways -
Embedded
The MultiConnect
™
OCG-E embedded open communications gateways with CoreCDP
™
comprise an open Linux
development environment and a fully certified hardware offering that includes multiple interfaces (serial,
USB, Ethernet and SD card) and internal peripherals (including a cellular modem and a GPS receiver) in one
application-ready end user solution.
Applications that require device networking capability can now reside directly on select Multi-Tech gateways. By
bringing together a cellular hardware development kit and Multi-Tech’s CoreCDP, a distribution version of the
Linux operating system and complete Linux build environment, you can create custom applications in a very
short period of time. The MultiConnect OCG-E provides a flexible, quick and cost-effective way to bring your
solution to market.

Highlights
Proven Hardware Platform. All MultiConnect OCG-E models
are based on Multi-Tech’s proven hardware design featuring
our SocketModem
®
cellular communication devices and
an ARM9 400MHz processor. The hardware is optimized
for application development utilizing our CoreCDP Linux
distribution.
Linux-Based Open Source. The MultiConnect OCG-E uses
the OpenEmbedded framework as the base to provide a
custom Linux distribution, known as CoreCDP. This allows
developers to cross-compile thousands of open source
software packages and to create custom applications
in a very short period of time. In many cases, existing
applications can easily be run with little or no modification.
Carrier Approved. All MultiConnect OCG-E models are carrier
and PTCRB or CDG approved, relieving customers the burden
and expense of obtaining these approvals independently.
This also provides a faster time-to-market and improved
return on investment.
Embedded OCG Pin-Out.
The MultiConnect OCG-E interfaces
to your design via an 80-pin board-
to-board connector giving you full
access and control of the numerous
interfaces and peripherals. Local
connectivity options include serial,
USB device and host, Ethernet, SPI,
I2C. In addition, there are several
user definable GPIOs, ADCs and LEDs
that can be utilized to enhance your
products overall design. Also included
are serial and JTAG debug ports to
help speed application development
and debug.
Developer's Kit.
The Developer's Kit
allows you to plug in the MultiConnect
OCG-E communications device and
use it for testing, programming and
evaluation.
You can also participate in developer forums on
www.multitech.net to find and share ideas and tips.
Moderated by Multi-Tech engineering professionals and the
developer community, these forums address a wide variety
of development topics to support your projects.
Advanced Developer Support. For developers needing
dedicated support, Multi-Tech offers a fee-based support
option available in 5-hour and 25-hour increments.
Advanced Developer Support provides assistance with
software issues, the porting of or cross-compiling of
applications, use of peripherals and much more.
