Structure & Components

• Wireless Radio Module: Supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands for dual-band operation.
• Processor: Responsible for protocol stack processing and efficient data forwarding to ensure smooth transmission.
• Power Management Module: Accepts a wide range of industrial power inputs, adapting to different on-site power supply conditions.
• Protective Enclosure: Industrial-grade housing with dust and water resistance, tailored for the harsh operating environment of industrial sites.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Automation: Connect PLCs, sensors, and actuators to realize wireless data acquisition and remote equipment control.
• Remote Monitoring: Transmit operational data wirelessly from remote or hard-to-wire locations back to the central control center for real-time monitoring and analysis.
• Mobile Workforce Support: Provide stable on-site Wi-Fi coverage for mobile staff, ensuring real-time access to critical industrial data and system resources.
• SCADA Networks: Serve as a wireless bridging node to connect distributed automation devices to the central SCADA control system, realizing unified management and control.

Installation & Maintenance

• Installation: Commonly installed via wall-mount or desktop placement. During installation, optimize the antenna orientation to achieve the best signal coverage. Due to DFS channel support, initial spectrum analysis is required to avoid signal interference with other devices.
• Configuration: Configured through ProSoft’s browser-based software (e.g., IH Browser), where users can set up SSID, encryption methods, and relevant network parameters according to on-site requirements.
• Maintenance: Regularly inspect antenna connections, perform firmware updates, and monitor the impact of environmental temperature on device operation. Most units support remote monitoring and fault alarm functions, facilitating proactive and efficient on-site maintenance.
