The DTE equipment presents an HSSI interface. FM4900s are used in pairs with one unit at either end of the Wide Area link. Error conditions and usage statistics are gathered and stored by the FM4900. Unit set-up is done via a comprehensive menu system which is accessed via a local or remote terminal.

The optional Metrodata LM1100 SNMP Enabler permits management via a LAN using an SNMP system.
