Power Consumption

The power consumption of the CTM-ONE gateway will depend on its supply voltage, its current operating function, and its RF environment.

The following table is provided to aid application integrators in determining the power requirements for their specific application. The overall power consumption is correlated with the device's overall "duty cycle." Fixed-site applications, which require infrequent polling, will have a low duty cycle, whereas a mobile solution will necessitate a higher duty cycle to ensure accurate geo-location.

Power Consumption

mW(@12V)

Typical time

Standby Mode

1.2-40 mW

Variable based on duty cycle

Operating System Mode

300-400 mW

15-60 seconds/session based on data processing/sensing. For mobile applications device will be typically operated continuously in this mode while the vehicle is in operation

Transmit

1200 mW

1-3 seconds/session
