High-Speed Industrial Wireless

March 1, 2006
Industrial Hotspot Radios provide wireless real-time access across distances up to 20 miles for most demanding industrial applications, says the vendor.

The RLX-IH Wireless Communication device creates an alternative to running costly cable, particularly where connectivity is not feasible, is prohibitively expensive or physically impossible. Operating at 2.4GHZ, RLX-IH radios feature high speed at long ranges and low latency, at 1-2 msec. They are well-suited for PDA/laptop connectivity, and support high-speed applications such as Voice/IP, video over Ethernet or security cameras. Other features include less maintenance than slip rings; data collectors for wireless sensors; 11 Mpbs data rate for fixed devices; connectivity to any 802.11-compliant access point; and redundant master radios and self-healing features for dependability.
