1.1 Introduction

The Teldat-3Ge enabler (Teldat-3Ge ) is an external 3G interface that delivers 3G service to the current corporate
network access infrastructure. This device is particularly suited for 3G installations where:
• The radio signal coverage in the area is fairly poor.
• It is impossible, or not convenient, to supply the current access router with an external 3G interface.

The Teldat-3Ge is the enterprise access point to the 3G network. This device provides a unique interface with the
access router over the corporate Ethernet LAN infrastructure. This singular approach avoids deployment of expens-
ive and bulky ultra-low-loss coaxial cables, needed to link the access router to an RF antenna (often located far from
interior setups). The Teldat-3Ge is also an external interface and can be fully managed by the current access router,
just as any point to point virtual interface.
The support for POE 802.3af further simplifies Teldat-3Ge installation, since the device can be powered from the
same Ethernet port used for communications with the current access routers.
The following figure summarizes the Teldat-3Ge concept:
