Long range, high reliability industrial radio modem offers range up to 500m through buildings - and high reliability when connecting 10/100 BaseT Ethernet networks wirelessly.
Westermo Data Communications announce the release a stand-alone industrial radio modem that offers both a long range and high reliability when connecting 10/100 BaseT Ethernet networks wirelessly. The ELPRO 805U-E is an ideal solution for industrial Ethernet connections in both process control and factory automation applications such as PLCs, DCS, SCADA, data acquisition and wireless video. The module uses 869MHz unlicensed radio technology, offering a data rate of up to 77 Kbits/sec, to provide excellent penetration in congested industrial environments with a range of over 500m through buildings, factory walls and steelwork.
It is suitable for both long and short-range applications, with a maximum range of up to 5km.
A repeater function can increase the range even further.
The 805U-E is extremely reliable, incorporating multiple layers of error-detection and correction, plus an automatic changeover to another Access Point if the wireless link fails.
Security is of course as paramount.
As well as having secure firewall protection, the 805U-E makes use of military-grade AES security encryption of the wireless data.
The module can be easily configured - using a web-browser - as an access point, bridge, router or client/station.
Remote configuration and diagnostics are also available via the wireless link.
To improve the management of the wireless data the module uses a message filtering system at the MAC address level DIN rail mountable and housed in a heavy-duty aluminium case, the 805U-E is suitable for industrial/outdoor use in temperatures of between -40 deg C and +60 deg C.
The unit has two serial interfaces (RS232 and RS485) and 10-30V DC power supply options.
