The access points of the SCALANCE W700 product lines are ideally suited for setting up Industrial Wireless LANs (IWLAN) for 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz. They can be used in all applications that require a high degree of operational reliability, even in extremely harsh surroundings.
High data rates (up to 450 Mbit/s in connection with Channel Bonding) as per IEEE802.11n
Reliable wireless link by using of MIMO technology (Multiple Input, Multiple Output). For this, SCALANCE W access points use up to three streams for simultaneous sending and receiving.
SCALANCE W700 Access Points are suitable for any application: for outdoors with high requirements regarding climactic conditions, for installing without a control cabinet indoors, for installing in the control cabinet, and for an extended range of environmental conditions.
Reliable thanks to a rugged, impact-resistant enclosure, protected from water and dust (up to IP65), resistant to shock, vibration and electromagnetic fields, resistant to condensation thanks to the use of coated PCBs
Demanding applications with real-time and redundancy requirements, such as PROFINET with PROFIsafe
Conformant to standards through supporting IEEE802.11; expanded software functions especially for use where increased reliability is required, e.g. cyclic real-time data traffic and very high-speed roaming (iPCF, iPCF-MC)
Configuration support by means of wizards and online help; easy management via Web server and SNMP
Configuration and diagnostics using Web based Management, Command Line Interface, and SNMP. Devices and networks can be configured using STEP 7 (TIA Portal). For cyclic monitoring, diagnostics and documentation (reporting) in network mode, the SINEMA Server software is recommended.
Enabling of further functions using the KEY-PLUG swap medium (iPCF, iPCF-MC, iREF)
Fast replacement of devices if a fault occurs thanks to use of optional KEY-PLUG/C-PLUG (Configuration Plug) swap medium
