High level of investment protection, as all products comply with the universally recognized IEEE 802.11 standard and are suitable for 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
Wear-free – saves maintenance and repair costs for connectors, trailing cables, sliding contacts or winding devices
Reliable wireless connection, e.g. due to redundant connection, automatic roaming if there is a break in the cable connection from the access point (forced roaming), cyclic monitoring of the wireless link (link check), or monitoring for IP connections (IP Alive)
Predictable data traffic (deterministic) and defined response times on the radio link
Wireless transmission of standard and failsafe signals by means of PROFINET and PROFIsafe
More economical installation in hazardous areas of Zone 2
Rapid commissioning thanks to reduced overhead for installing the communication network when using the SINEMA E engineering tool. This provides support for planning, simulating and measuring an IWLAN radio link on-site (site survey)
Integrated wireless network for data, voice and video beyond corporate divisions thanks to interfacing with the SCALANCE WLC IWLANcontroller (support from SCALANCE W78xC device types)
