The NPort W2150A and W2250A are the ideal choice for connecting serial or Ethernet devices such as PLCs, meters and sensors to a wireless LAN. The communications software will be able to access the serial devices from anywhere over a wireless LAN. Moreover, the wireless device servers require fewer cables and are ideal for applications that involve difficult wiring situations. In Infrastructure Mode or Ad-Hoc Mode, the NPort W2150A and NPort W2250A can connect to Wi-Fi networks at offices and factories to allow users to move or roam between several access points (APs), and they offer an excellent solution for devices that are frequently moved from place to place.
Features and benefits include:
• Link any serial or Ethernet device to an IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n network.
• 921.6 kbps baudrate for RS-232/422/485 transmissions.
• Web-based configuration using built-in Ethernet or WLAN.
• Enhanced surge protection for serial, LAN and power.
• Remote configuration with HTTPS, SSH.
• Secure data access with WEP, WPA, WPA2.
• Fast automatic wireless fast roaming.
• Offline port buffering and serial data log.
• Dual power inputs (one screw-type power jack, one terminal block).
