Flexible, Secure Ethernet Radio

March 13, 2008
As the latest addition to the vendor’s RAD-80211 series, the RAD-80211-XD-BUS is a Wireless Ethernet Radio with modular I/O and firmware capabilities.
The radio combines secure wireless communication with control of up to eight I/O modules. Up to 64 digital, analog and pulse I/O can be interfaced directly to the radio, saving installed cost for distributed Ethernet wireless I/O monitoring and control applications. The I/O modules can be addressed via Modbus TCP or legacy serial Modbus RTU over the 802.11 network. Multiple wireless communications streams allow simultaneous Ethernet, I/O control, and serial ASCII device communications—all from a single radio without external gateways or additional serial wireless converters.  Phoenix Contactwww.phoenixcon.com800.322.3225
