SETTING THE STANDARD
With over a decade of experience, AirLink products have continually set the benchmark by which other mobile data solutions are judged. Now, the PinPoint Ethernet EV-DO has raised the bar once again for speed, rugged reliability, and ease of use. Powered by the AirLink Embedded Operating System (ALEOS), the PinPoint-E EV-DO is a powerful and diverse mobile communications platform. Now equipped with Ethernet, it can fully take advantage of the new higher data rates offered by EV-DO technology, and it’s even easier to configure and install.

POWER AND PRODUCTIVITY
By blending an always-on wireless broadband data connection with a high-precision integrated GPS receiver, the PinPoint provides scaleable mobile data solutions for the enterprise. As a standalone in-vehicle device, it enables AVL, fleet management and real-time dispatch applications. Its Ethernet, serial, and digital interfaces enable a host of applications to communicate over public EV-DO networks with typical data speeds similar to DSL. AirLink's EV-DO products are interoperable with existing and broadly deployed CDMA 1x networks and will automatically and seamlessly fall back to 1x when EV-DO is not available. Example applications include public safety, field force automation, credit-card processing, and advanced telematics.

ALEOS TECHNOLOGY
As with all PinPoint Products, the PinPoint-E is powered by AirLink’s venerable ALEOS technology – the longstanding industry benchmark for reliable and feature-rich embedded intelligence. With extensive capabilities like remote monitoring and configuration, packet-level diagnostics and over-the-air firmware updates, ALEOS simplifies installation, operation, and maintenance of any solution. ALEOS provides the “always-on” and “always-aware” connection management required for today’s mission-critical applications.
