February 23, 2007, Bellevue, WA – Data-Linc's long-range, SRM6310E-EU wireless Ethernet modems, designed to meet European CE Mark and ETSI RF regulations, join the SRM6210E 900 MHz band Ethernet radio modem and the SRM6310E 2.4 GHz Ethernet radio modem in receiving Class 1 Div 2 certification. These modems have a long history of ultra high performance in harsh environments and now those environments can include areas where Class 1, Div 2 is required. “The SRM6x10E has been the work horse of our product line for several years, and now we can expand the product line into Class 1, Div 2 areas.
Adding Class 1, Div 2 certification will bring those high standards to a segment of the automation industry that until now has not been able benefit from Data-Linc Group’s industry reputation,” said Randy Maes Director of Technology at Data-Linc. The stand-alone 900 Mhz SRM6210E, the 2.4 GHz SRM6310E and SRM6310E-EU modems are part of Data-Linc Group’s Smart Spectrum tm line of wireless data communication products that combine advanced frequency hopping technology and a highly sensitive RF receiver to maximize transmission range and industrial performance. As one of the first long range wireless Ethernet modems on the market, they have been regarded as a leader in performance, reliability and quality since their introduction.
With their excellent long-standing reputation, and now Class 1 Div 2 certification, these modems are the ideal choice for installation in hazardous environments demanding this standard.
