Features and Benefits

  • 2x2 MIMO 802.11a/b/g/n AP/bridge/client
  • Millisecond-level Client-based Turbo Roaming The Turbo Roaming recovery time indicated herein is an average of test results documented, in optimized conditions, across APs configured with interference-free 20-MHz RF channels, WPA2-PSK security, and default Turbo Roaming parameters. The clients are configured with 3-channel roaming at 100 Kbps traffic load. Other conditions may also impact roaming performance. For more information about Turbo Roaming parameter settings, refer to the product manual.
  • Easy setup and deployment with AeroMag
  • Wireless redundancy with AeroLink Protection
  • Easy network setup with Network Address Translation (NAT)
  • Rugged industrial design with integrated antenna and power isolation
  • IP68-rated weatherproof housing designed for outdoor applications and -40 to 75°C wide operating temperature range

Introduction

The AWK-4131A IP68 outdoor industrial AP/bridge/client meets the growing need for faster data transmission speeds by supporting 802.11n technology and allowing 2X2 MIMO communication with a net data rate of up to 300 Mbps. The AWK-4131A is compliant with industrial standards and approvals covering operating temperature, power input voltage, surge, ESD, and vibration. The two redundant DC power inputs increase the reliability of the power supply, and the AWK-4131A can be powered via PoE to make deployment easier. The AWK-4131A can operate on either the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz bands and is backwards-compatible with existing 802.11a/b/g deployments to future-proof your wireless investments. The Wireless add-on for the MXview network management utility visualizes the AWK's invisible wireless connections to ensure wall-to-wall Wi-Fi connectivity.

Advanced 802.11n Industrial Wireless Solution

  • 802.11a/b/g/n compliant AP/bridge/client for flexible deployment

  • Software-optimized for long-distance wireless communication with up to 1 km line of sight and external high-gain antenna (available only on 5 GHz)

  • Supports 60 clients connected concurrently

  • DFS channel support allows a wider range of 5 GHz channel selection to avoid interference from existing wireless infrastructure

Advanced Wireless Technology for Mission-critical Applications

  • Seamless roaming with client-based Turbo Roaming The Turbo Roaming recovery time indicated herein is an average of test results documented, in optimized conditions, across APs configured with interference-free 20-MHz RF channels, WPA2-PSK security, and default Turbo Roaming parameters. The clients are configured with 3-channel roaming at 100 Kbps traffic load. Other conditions may also impact roaming performance. For more information about Turbo Roaming parameter settings, refer to the product manual. for < 150 ms roaming recovery time between APs (Client mode)
