Antaira launches industrial dual radio wireless unit

Antaira Technologies has launched its ARS-7231-AC series, an industrial dual radio wireless unit with router capabilities, which it says can be used in ITS and traffic applications. The solution, embedded with the Qualcomm Atheros QCA9892 chipset, is expected to offer a wide network coverage with a low-voltage input of 9V and support.

7906 Antaira Technologies has launched its ARS-7231-AC series, an industrial dual radio wireless unit with router capabilities, which it says can be used in ITS and traffic applications.

The solution, embedded with the 213 Qualcomm Atheros QCA9892 chipset, is expected to offer a wide network coverage with a low-voltage input of 9V and support.

According to Antaira, the device can be used as an access point, transparent bridge or repeater. These units allow users to position the wireless antennas in a better signal-broadcasting location to improve wireless coverage and signal strength, the company adds.

    The new Multi-Hop Data Radio from Banner Engineering extends the reach of the company's SureCross wireless systems by repeating transmissions in 3km 'hops' to a multi-hop total of 20km or more. Using the system, clusters can be combined and connected to create networks with 2,400 wireless points, covering over 100km2. The company says its system can be used to connect a wide variety of field devices directly, including PLCs, controllers, HMIs, DCSs, transmitters and level, pressure and temperature sensors.
