CTM-200 Gateway

Chameleon CTM-200™
for Remote Use

The flexible and versatile CTM-200 supports various operating modes (full/half bridge), can act as a high speed router and includes a Wi-Fi option for hotspot support.
Two Ethernet ports
Two Ethernet ports
Two Ethernet ports allows the CTM-200 to be used as a fail-over device. The two ports (WAN and LAN) provide complete galvanic isolation from both the CTM-200 and one another to ensure that a problem on one port does not affect the other.

Two Ethernet Ports
One Ethernet port is a LAN port and the other is a WAN port. This enables the gateway to be used as a “fail over” device where the WAN port is on a different subnet, or they can be both defined to be on the same subnet “switched” operation.
CAN Bus Port
CAN2.0B Bus Interface support for CAN enabled devices.
Real Time Clock
Maintain time synchronization for up to 24 hours when power has been removed from the device (120 second recharging time).
3-Axis Digital Accelerometer
Accelerometer that can be used for motion detection and hard brake/hard acceleration events.
Micro SD Memory Card Support
On board memory expansion for data logging and storage applications.
Locking I/O Terminals
Prevents accidental disconnects.
5.5 V to 36V continuous 58 V transient
Wide input voltage range to support a variety of operating environments (no modem reset during cold cranking).
User Replaceable Fuse
Easily accessible fuse for circuit protection.
Output Power (5-36 V) via Terminal Block
Ability to supply power to externally connected accessories and devices.
64-256 MB of RAM
Sizeable application space to support current and future OS requirements.
