Connection Interfaces

Popoto Modems can connect to an external device through serial, Ethernet, USB adapter, or product-specific board-level interfaces. The interfaces available on a given unit depend on the product family and ordered configuration.

Ethernet
Availability	Available on most enclosed modems, Deckbox systems, with the exception of S-Series modems configured for serial, and OEM modem configurations with Ethernet exposed through the product interface.
Pros	Ethernet provides the highest-speed and most flexible host connection for Popoto command sockets, host APIs, real-time PCM capture, and software updates.
Cons	Ethernet typically adds approximately 200-300 mW of power consumption. Standard copper Ethernet cable length is also limited to approximately 100 meters.
