Wireless Gateway
AirSprite’s Wireless Gateway is the core of a standards-compliant infrastructure, which includes Adapter and Router products, all based on IEEE 802.15.4 wireless mesh sensor networking. The infrastructure will be compliant with two key emerging wireless standards, WirelessHART™ and ISA100, and will eliminate the cost and risks associated with purchasing proprietary wireless systems and instrumentation from a single vendor.
Key features include:
- Standards compliance: Built on the emerging WirelessHART standard to facilitate multi-vendor installations and ensure high levels of security and reliability.
- Ease of use: A rich set of capabilities, such as ready integration via OPC®, auto-discovery and publishing of device tags for OPC clients, full-view system management via a comprehensive Web browser console, and role-based configuration for user access, all add up to deliver outstanding ease of use for all types of users, ranging from system administrators to maintenance staff to operators.
- Universal retrofits: Infrastructure maximizes application options, enabling wireless retrofitting of either HART devices or analog-only 4-20 mA devices, to deliver continuous access to previously stranded HART data or the ability to cost-effectively add new wireless measurement points.
- Reliable: Rugged packaging design for withstanding challenging outdoor conditions combined with a robust wireless mesh protocol for high network reliability and 32 bit Cyclic Redundancy Check ensure the highest levels of system reliability.
- Secure: Multiple layers of standards-compliant and AirSprite features meet the security needs of the most demanding industrial installations.
