Introduction

AIRTRACK-D2 is a rugged equipment designed for above ground mines for:

tele-operation of heavy machinery from a remote control station, collision avoidance, localization of people and goods and other services as evacuation signaling systems, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) wireless phones, mobile data download (smartphones, tablets…), mobile & fixed IP video…

 

The two radio design allows the use of two separate networks simultaneously without sacrificing speed; the fast roaming feature allows lossless communication between APs during vehicle motion.
Moreover, the dual radio system allows relying 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), shock and vibration proof, IP66 all weather seal rating for protection against dust, water projections and vapor.

 

AIRTRACK-D2 works with any kind of industrial protocols carried by Ethernet TCP/IP such as PROFINET, PROFIsafe…

 

AIRTRACK-D2 fonctionne avec tout type de protocole industriel basé sur Ethernet TCP / IP tels que PROFINET, PROFIsafe...
