Overview
The DT-4500 Ambulatory Transceiver provides two-way wireless communication
between analog ECG circuitry and the hospital’s data distribution network. The DT-
4500 is connected to the patient through the ECG lead circuitry and is carried on the
patient in a gown or disposable paper pouch. The ambulatory transceiver converts the
analog ECG patient parameters to a digital format, which is then transmitted to an
Access Point transceiver. The Access Point transceiver distributes the digital data to
the hospital’s data distribution network. The transceiver system includes 6 ECG
leads, accurate waveform notification, data port activity, notification of radio
frequency (RF) link to Access Point, battery status, attendant present switch, nurse
call switch, and two I/O ports for attachment to external medical devices.

Equipment Site Selection/Location
The transceiver is worn by the patient and is carried either in a gown pocket or
disposable paper pouch. The typical orientation is against the chest with the front
facing out, which minimizes body attenuation losses.
