1.1.1. Worldwide Acceptance FCC Certified (USA) Refer to Appendix A for FCC Requirements. Systems that contain XStream RF Modems automatically inherit MaxStream Certifications. ISM (Industrial, Scientific & Medical) frequency band Manufactured under ISO 9001:2000 registered standards 9XStream-PKG-E (900 MHz) RF Modems approved for use in US, Canada, Australia, Israel (and more).
2.1.1. System Description The PKG-E Ethernet RF Modem can be used as an access point in a network of MaxStream RS- 232/RS-485 RF Modems (or other OEM RF Module Embedded Devices). XStream RF Modems support point-to-point, peer-to-peer, point-to-multipoint and multidrop network topologies.
To Install the X-CTU Software: Double-click the “setup_X-CTU.exe” file then follow prompts of the installation screens. This file is located on the MaxStream CD and under the ‘Downloads’ section of the following web page: www.maxstream.net/support/. Installation #2: Ethernet Com Port Redirector MaxStream provides com port redirection software that creates a com port in the operating system that will forward serial data to the IP address of the Ethernet-connected RF modem.

Acknowledged Mode [p44], Multi-Streaming Mode [p46] Peer-to-Peer Modems remain synchronized without use of a master/server. Each modem shares the roles of master and slave. MaxStream’s peer-to- Definition peer architecture features fast synch times (35ms to synchronize modems) and fast cold start times (50ms before transmission).
IMPORTANT: The 9XStream (900 MHz) and 24XStream (2.4 GHz) RF Modems have been certified by the FCC for use with other products without any further certification (as per FCC section 2.1091). Changes or modifications not expressly approved by MaxStream could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This test is called the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing and measures the emissions from the radio modem and how they affect the person. Over 100 additional antennas have been tested and are approved for use with MaxStream 900 MHz Radio Modems (including “Mag Mount”, “Dome”, “Multi-path” and “Panel” antennas).
