January 15, 2009 - Grid Connect introduces the W900-IM long range wireless Ethernet bridge, a DIN rail mountable, secure, radio in a metal housing. The radios transmit in the 902-928 Mhz band with no FCC license necessary to operate or install. Auto or manual selection between 12 available channels is available for optimal transmission quality. When setting up a pair of radios, select which radio act as an access point, and which will act as a subscriber with the flip of a switch. Then plug an Ethernet cable in between them.
The two radios will pair and exchange keys for encryption. Remove the cable, plug the radios into their respective Ethernet host or network, and the wireless link is now up and running.The radios don’t interfere with Wi-Fi signals. It has a 935 Kb/s data rate and the signal is capable of penetrating as many as seven walls with the standard included rubber ducky antenna. Optional stronger antennas are sold separately and can provide an even longer range.
The W900-IM is optimal for Ethernet intercoms, Kiosks, PTZ cameras, access control, and more. The point to point synchronous connections provide low latency and jitter. Install in tight places with the small form factor, a 24V power supply is included.
