Introduction

As its predecessor (WLg-ABOARD) with which it is compatible, RuggedAir100 is an "all-in-one" multifunction product (access point, client, repeater, router & Mesh point) designed for industrial applications in harsh environment (IP66 waterproof, shocks and vibrations proof, extended temperature range, M12 connectors...). It can be used either on the ground to create indoor or outdoor WiFi coverages, or on board to connect all types of mobile equipment or vehicles (trams, construction/agricultural machines, trucks, automated cranes, harbor cranes...) to the ground network.

  • Reliability : it is equipped with a redundant wide range (9-48 VDC) or POE power supply as well as 2 antennas making it possible to reinforce the quality of the radio link and to increase the throughputs.
  • Mobility : its roaming performances (<30 ms) and its shocks/vibrations resistance make it easy to integrate in any type of mobile equipment or vehicle.
  • Ease of deployment and maintenance : RuggedAir100 can be easily managed from the network with the centralized management software WaveManager, through SNMP or from a simple web browser. It also has a C-Key (key saving configuration) for instant replacement on site.
  • Security : it integrates advanced security standards (Firewall, VPN, 802.1X ...) as well as routing and filtering functions to facilitate mass deployments.
