Cellular Networks
Compared with polling architecture, push technology not only solves the IP address issues but also reduces 
network loading as well as bandwidth consumption. 
Moxa’s ioLogik W5340 Active GPRS I/Os takes full advantage of all the benefits of push technology and 
Active OPC Server. What Active GPRS I/O and Active OPC Server provide are:
1. SCADA Data Acquisition by OPC protocol. 
2. SCADA Data Acquisition by Modbus/TCP protocol.
3. ioAdmin.exe: active GPRS I/O’s configuration software.
Alarm messages, such as e-mail and SNMP trap or user definable TCP/UDP raw packets, can all be actively 
pushed to e-mail servers, SNMP trap servers, or TCP/UDP servers. SMS can be pushed from the Active 
GPRS I/O to an engineer’s cellular phone.
Active OPC server is an exceptionally powerful gateway for Active GPRS I/O and plays the role of managing 
IP addresses, GPRS I/O device names, data acquisition gateways, and configuration gateways. This is truly 
the easiest solution for the GPRS industry to eliminate IP address and communication problems.
 New Push Architecture for GPRS Networks
Push Architecture is a mobile centric solution. Service providers such as web portals and e-mail servers 
use a fixed domain name. Clients such as mobile phones get information from these service providers by 
“pushing” the connection request to the Web and e-mail servers, and when a connection is established, 
the communication is bi-directional. Unlike the so-called polling architecture, push technology makes 
bi-directional communication possible for GPRS networks that are using either a dynamic or a static IP 
address. A remote device with front-end intelligence can report its I/O status to the host and connect to the 
GPRS network when it needs to. Since Moxa’s Active OPC Server supports push technology, our GPRS I/O 
family of products creates a software-based gateway that makes communications easier. By using a static 
IP address on the Active OPC Server, the GPRS I/O device can connect to the GPRS network and Active 
OPC Server without needing to worry about the IP address issues. The topology is described below:
