AirborneTM is a line of highly integrated
802.11 radios and device servers,
designed to address the demands of
complex machine-to-machine (M2M)
applications. Utilizing the latest 802.11
microprocessor and network
technologies, the Airborne family of
products provide a broad encompassing
solution for wireless applications.
The Airborne Wireless Device Server
family includes hardware and software
necessary to connect a serial or Ethernet
device to a high performance 802.11
network. The WLNG-SE-DP501 and
WLNG-SP-DP501 includes a full featured
802.11b/g radio and a high performance
32bit ARM9 microprocessor running an
embedded RTOS. The module also
incorporates Quatech’s exclusive
Airborne Device Server firmware, which
can network-enable virtually any OEM
product.
Enterprise Class Security
WPA2-Enterprise is the leading wireless
security standard for enterprise networks
and is fully supported by the Airborne
Enterprise products. The integrated
supplicant supports a wide range of EAP
processes including:
EAP-TLS/MSCHAPv2
EAP-TLS/MD5
EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2
PEAPv0/MSCHAPv2
LEAP
Airborne supports the most flexible
certificate delivery and management
available in the embedded device market,
along with WEP, WPA, WP A2, 802.11i and
Pre-shared Key (PSK), no other wireless
solution provides a more comprehensive
security solution.
Reliability
Designed by Quatech specifically to meet
the demands of the industrial, automotive
and medical markets, the Airborne device
server has the widest operating
temperature range and highest level of
reliability available, all backed by a five
year limited warranty. Quatech also
provides FCC Modular certification,
minimizing requirements for further
regulatory testing by original equipment
manufacturers.
Applications
Previous generations of Airborne Serial
Device Servers have been integrated and
deployed into a wide range of applications
across various industries including:
Medical equipment
Vehicle telematics & diagnostics
Material handling & logistics
Industrial Automation
Test & measurement
Security & access control
Quatech’s Airborne Wireless Serial
Device Server Module extends the
reputation of technologies implemented in
the Quatech the family further by drawing
on experience of Quatech application
engineers across hundreds of wireless
M2M deployments. Model Selection Guide
