Industrial IEEE 802.11a/b/g IP68 Wireless AP/Bridge/Client -40 to 75°
The AWK-4121 outdoor wireless AP/bridge/client is the ideal outdoor wireless solution for industrial applications that are hard to wire, too expensive to wire, or use mobile equipment that connect to a TCP/IP network. The AWK-4121’s dust-tight/weatherproof design is IP68-rated, allowing you to extend existing wired networks to outdoor locations and critical environments. The two redundant DC power inputs increase the reliability of the power supply and can be powered via PoE for easier deployment. The AWK-4121 is compliant with the industrial standards and approvals, covering operating temperature, power input voltage, surge, ESD and vibration. With many hardened industrial-grade features, the AWK-4121 will provide stable and reliable wireless connectivity, even in harsh outdoor environments.
