Although significant delays or losses of data are rare when

wireless devices such as the Sierra Wireless modem are used in

a normal manner with a well-constructed network, the Sierra

Wireless modem should not be used in situations where

failure to transmit or receive data could result in damage of

any kind to the user or any other party, including but not

limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra

Wireless, Inc., accepts no responsibility for damages of any

kind resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted or

received using the Sierra Wireless modem, or for failure of the

Sierra Wireless modem to transmit or receive such data.

Defense contracts, and as set forth in Federal Acquisitions

Regulations (FARs) Section 52.227-19 for civilian agency

contracts or any successor regulations. If further government

regulations apply, it is your responsibility to ensure

compliance with such regulations.

MP 555 GPS modem

Package Contents

Warranty

The Sierra Wireless MP 555 GPS modem provides a wireless

network connection for portable computers installed in

vehicles. The modem has a rugged design that allows it to

withstand the vibration, shock, humidity, and extremes of

temperature experienced in the normal operation of police,

emergency, utility, and field service vehicles.

The network connection provided by the MP 555 GPS can be

used to access shared data, browse the Internet, and send and

receive e-mail and text messages. The modem also allows for

sensors, gauges, and alarms (such as panic buttons) to be

deployed in vehicles and remotely monitored from a central

location or dispatch. A built-in GPS module provides location

and heading data that can also be remotely monitored.
