WLn-ABOARD is a rugged wireless broadband equipment designed for applications in road and railways transportation (CBTC architectures), depots, warehouses, agriculture, manufacturing floors, docks, distribution centers, shipyards and lumberyards … it can be mounted in trains, tramways, trucks, freighter ships, forklifts, trailers, tractors or cranes, dumpers, mines for material handling, real-time information transmission (multiple CCTV cameras, VoIP phones …), board to board, board to ground communications and ground infrastructure.
The two radio design makes it possible to use two separate networks for carriage bridging (5 / 5.4 GHz) and in-carriage communication (2.4 GHz) simultaneously without sacrificing speed; the fast roaming feature allows lossless communication between APs during vehicle motion.
Moreover, the dual radio system makes it possible to rely on a redundant network; redundancy is also possible between two devices.
It fulfills the most severe requirements in terms of operating environment: -25°C to +70°C (extended -40°C to +75°C, -55°C with optional PTC heater), shockproof and vibration proof, IP66 all weather seal rating for protection against dust, water projections and vapor.
WLn-ABOARD is certified for railway applications (EN 50155 [IEC 60571] / EN 50121-3-2 / EN 50121-4).
