Fastlink is a high-speed low-power industrial modem for remote data transfer at speeds of 14,400bit/s and beyond. Where applications generate significant data quantities, Fastlink minimises the cost and unreliability associated with extended call times. Small enough to fit under the terminal cover of a typical electricity meter, it is ideal for automatic meter reading in multi-utility data collection, environmental monitoring and general low-power telemetry applications.

Fastlink uses far less battery energy than lower speed counterparts for an equivalent amount of data, making it suitable for battery powered equipment too.

Fastlink is designed to raise efficiency and productivity through high-speed communication on a single connection.

A low-current standby (less than 5uA) saves on operating costs and choice of power supply increases options for remote metering equipment linkup.

Setup and routine communication is easy using Jekyll's Remote Manager remote configuration software, whilst installation is possible on existing telephone lines through a shared line feature.

Conventional high-speed computer modems are unsuitable for industrial needs because they are often bulky, power hungry, prone to locking up and limited in configuration ability.

Restrictions on size, power and costs have limited industrial modem transfer rates in the past to speeds of 1200s or 2400bit/s, but Fastlink plugs the gap with a solution that is compact, economical to run, reliable and completely versatile.
