SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS

EMP Networm Cell Modem Recommendations/Requirements Statement:

The USGS Earthquake Monitoring Project (EMP) in the Earthquake Science Center, Menlo Park, CA, requires updated seismic recording and processing systems to monitor earthquakes in California. The selected vendor shall supply Cell Modem telemetry to support seismic data acquisition, data logging, data timing and data telemetry used by the USGS for the delivery and processing of earthquake information. USGS, EMP accomplishes its mission of earthquake monitoring through a data center system known as Earthworm. Earthworm can also deployed as a smaller, tightly coupled hardware and software system, at individual sensing stations. This configuration is known as “Networm”, it manages the gathering, timing, processing and telemetry of seismic information.

These specifications require a Cell Modem of this configuration:

•CradlePoint IBR650E-VZ “brand name or equivalent” 3G/4G Wireless WAN Gateway/Broadband Router – CDMA, and CDMA/EV-DO, “Always On” /Constant Network functionality.

• Ethernet Ports: 2 to 3 RJ-45 auto configure ports 10/100/1000 Mbps 10Base-T Ethernet Switch - UDP/TCP& DHCP protocols

• Firewall/Router functions: SSL, SSL/TLS, Port forwarding, VPN tunneling with multiple tunneling support, VPN/GRE pass-through, IPsec with IKE/ISAKMP, NAT, IP pass-through, IP filtering/access control lists, VRRP, 256-bit AES DES.

•9-18 VDC VDC, 1.5A power supply

• -20 C to 60˚C operating temperature

• Wall, ceiling and floor mountable

• Status (power on, Ethernet & link activity) LED indicators

• Optional state of health/performance (temperature, voltage) monitoring with SNMP

• Optional 2X50 Ω “Diversity” antennas (Center pin: on device: female; on antenna: male) •FCC certification.

•HTTP/ HTTPS based CradlePoint “Enterprise Cloud Manager “ remote management software for group/system, updates, downloads, firmware upgrades, security configuration management.
