Moxa NPort W2150A/W2250A series RS232/422/485 to wireless IEEE 802.11a/b/g device servers

Moxa has released the NPort W2150A/W2250A Series RS-232/422/485 to wireless IEEE 802.11a/b/g device servers. The NPort W2150A/W2250A series allows secure data access with WEP/WPA/WPA2/802.1x encryption, consumes only 2.4 W of power and supports wide-temperature operation for environments ranging from -40 to 75°C, making them suitable for use in industrial automation such as warehouse AGV and CNC applications.

Moxa’s Fast Roaming technology increases the roaming speed to unify AP channels and reduce handover times to less than 500 ms. The series also offers 3-in-1 surge protection, which includes level 3 (2 kV) power line surge protection and level 2 surge protection for serial and ethernet ports.

The series is designed to continue operating if the wireless connection is temporarily disconnected. If the wireless connection is restraining, or if the connection fails, serial data transmissions from the serial device will be queued in the built-in port buffer with over 10 MB of storage. As soon as the wireless connection returns to normal, the data stored in the buffer will be sent to its destination.
