The OmniAccess 3500 NLG card is a CardBus device that can be field-installed in a 
laptop with a PCMCIA slot. The card contains a local processor, flash memory, and a 
3G modem (EV-DO Release A), all powered by an on-card rechargeable battery. During 
normal operation, the card draws power from the laptop. The rechargeable battery 
supplies power when the laptop is in standby mode or in shutdown mode. 
The OmniAccess 3500 NLG card works with Windows-based laptops with the following 
minimum configuration: 
•  CPU: X86 1GHz 
•  Memory: 512 MB 
•  Free hard disk space: 1 GB 
•  Operating system: Windows XP Home, Professional, or Tablet edition 
•  One PC Cardbus slot

The management system is the sole management portal to the OmniAccess 3500 NLG 
gateway, cards, and laptops. It is a software-only component that can be installed in 
any Linux server with adequate resources, including the OmniAccess 3500 NLG 
gateway (in the OmniAccess 3500 NLG R1.2 the gateway is actually the only option 

available for the installation of the management system software).
