5970 Belden has launched from its Hirschmann product range an industry-grade IP65 WLAN client called BAT-C. This basic and inexpensive client can be cost-effectively deployed in any WLAN installation where there is no need for high-end clients. Supporting the new IEEE 802.11n transmission standard, the BAT-C has a data rate of up to 150 Mbps. Fast roaming ensures an uninterrupted connection while switching from one radio cell to another. Other features include management and encryption functions, a temperature range of -40° C to +70° C, a 24v power supply, and a compact design. All this means the client is suitable for a wide range of stationary and mobile WLAN applications in industrial environments. Thanks to its E1 approval, it can also be used to set up a wireless connection from buses and other vehicles to an Ethernet network.
