RAD-868-IFS - Wireless module

Radioline - 868 MHz wireless transceiver with RS-232/RS-485 interface, can be extended with I/O modules, RSMA (female) antenna connection, point-to-point, star, and mesh networks up to 99 stations, range of up to 20 km (with a clear line of sight), for use in Europe

  • License-free 868 MHz frequency band
  • Particularly suitable for non-time-critical signal transmission over large distances with obstacles
  • Range of several kilometers thanks to adjustable data rates for the wireless interface
  • Quick and easy startup without programming
  • High degree of reliability due to Trusted Wireless 2.0 technology (AES encryption, frequency hopping method, and coexistence management)
  • Mesh networks of up to 99 devices
  • Integrated RS-232/RS-485 interface
  • Modular extension with up to 32 I/O extension modules supported
  • Extended temperature range of -40 °C … +70 °C
  • Approved for use in zone 2
