Wireless Network Overview
Remote RMX-3200 models can be equipped with EvDO or UMTS modules used to
locate Remote RMX-3200s in areas that do not have traditional WAN connectivity.
Additionally, Remote RMX-3200s located at cell sites do not require a dedicated
T1/E1 channel for management. Full T1/E1 bandwidth is available for wireless
customers and management data can be carried over the customer network.
Note: For details on the available Remote RMX-3200 WAN modules, see Appendix
B : WAN Port Availability.

restrictions on protocols over the network.
The wireless Remote RMX-3200 communicates with the service provider’s
management network by delivering alarms to it. The management network tries to
establish connections to Remote RMX-3200 or to connected network elements.
