October 30, 2014 - Moxa announces AWK-3191 wireless access point/bridge/client that provides reliable wireless connectivity through walls or over long distances. By frequency-shifting 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi to 900 MHz, Moxa's AWK-3191 is able to support maximum data rates of up to 54 Mbps and distances up to 30 km line-of-sight. With AWK-3191, users can achieve a 6 Mbps data rate over a 30 km point-to-point connection and a theoretical maximum data rate of 54 Mbps. In addition, master/slave and AP/client operation modes are available to support point-to-point and point-to-multi-point communication.

This combination of features makes the AWK-3191 a highly flexible and cost effective solution for wireless applications involving highly obstructed sites or long distances, such as open-pit mines or offshore platforms. Rugged enough for any harsh industrial environment, the AWK-3191 is rated to operate at temperatures ranging from -25 to 60°C for standard models and -40 to 75°C for wide temperature models. Its industrial-grade design is compliant with various standards and approvals including for EMC (FCC part 15, Subpart B). In the event of external interference, the AWK-3191 allows engineers to adjust the 900 MHz central frequency and bandwidth (5/10 MHz and 20 MHz) to optimize wireless performance.

HIghlights:

  • 900 MHz transmission for superior wireless penetration and distance
  • AP/client and master/slave modes for point-to-point and point-to-multi-point connections
  • QoS (WMM) and VLAN for efficient network traffic
  • Maximum security with WEP/WPA/WPA2/802.11X and powerful filters
  • -40 to 75°C operating temperature range (T models)
  • Power and antenna isolation design for higher operation stability
