XM Crypto Module
NAL Research Corporation - FIPS 140 #1628
A3LA-XM is a modem comprised of the XM Crypto Module encryption board and a communication board. It is designed to transmit AES 256-bit encrypted data via a communication network. The A3LA-XM has an internal micro-controller programmed to monitor the modems connectivity status to prevent hardware lock-up. Similar to a standard landline modem, the A3LA-XM can be controlled by any DTE (data terminal equipment) capable of sending standard AT commands via an RS232 serial or a USB 2.0 port.
