- Model BB-APXN-Q5420 industrial wireless access point is built for networking equipment in an array of machine-to-machine (M2M) applications. The AirborneM2MTM access point features industrial strength packaging and a wide temperature rating (-40 to +85 °C) to withstand challenging M2M environments.
Combination Access Point and Client Capability
The AirborneM2M access point enables M2M equipment to create a self sufficient Wi-Fi network and provides easy access to equipment data or resources from Wi-Fi enabled devices. The product also has the capability to be switched from an access point to a client; supporting dual RS-232/422/485 serial ports or a single 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port. The Ethernet port can be placed into either router mode or bridge mode.
Dual-Band Wi-Fi
Model BB-APXN-Q5420 establishes wireless connections over 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz bands. Whenever the 2.4 GHz airspace is overcrowded with competing wireless transmissions, the access point can be switched to 5 GHz the band to keep data flowing.
Enterprise Class Security
Security protocols are important to mission critical wireless M2M applications. Model BB-APXN-Q5420 access point's multi-layer security addresses the requirements of Enterprise-class networks and corporate IT departments.
Advanced security features include: wireless security (802.11i/WAP2 enterprise), authentication security using WPA2 (AES-CCMP) and device security (multilayered encryption). The access point includes a fully functional DHCP server to provide unique addresses for each authenticated client. Up to 9 clients can be supported on the local Wi-Fi network.
Power
The access point is powered by an external 5-36 VDC power source (not included, sold separately).
