Detailed Description:
-
Dual-Mode Operation: Can be configured as a Wireless Access Point (AP) to create a wireless network, or as a Wireless Client to connect to an existing network, enabling wireless access for Ethernet devices.
-
Rugged and Durable: All-metal housing with a high protection rating of IP65, dust-tight and water-resistant. It withstands a wide temperature range from -20°C to +60°C, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments (e.g., outdoor, high-temperature workshops).
-
Industrial-Grade Communication Features: Supports IEEE 802.11 b/g/n standards and integrates two 10/100 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet ports. iFeatures (such as fast roaming, redundancy mechanisms, bandwidth limitation) ensure communication reliability and real-time performance to meet industrial application demands.
-
Antenna Connection: Provides one N-Type female connector for connecting an external antenna. Users can choose appropriate directional or omnidirectional antennas based on coverage requirements and on-site conditions for optimal signal reception.
-
Security and Management: Offers comprehensive security features including WPA/WPA2 Enterprise encryption, MAC address filtering, etc. Supports configuration and management via Web interface, SNMP, or Siemens-specific management software (e.g., Primary Setup Tool or SCALANCE W Manager).
-
Typical Applications: Used for wireless connections of cranes, mobile transport vehicles, AGVs, rotating equipment, remote distributed I/O stations (e.g., ET 200pro), or extending network coverage in factory floors and warehouses.
