INDUSTRIAL WIRELESS ETHERNET MODEMFLC810EFOR THE 2.4TO 2.4835 GHZ ISM BANDFEATURES• • • • • Provides high-speed wireless Ethernet connectivityusing the 2.4-2.483 license-free spread spectrumband• • • • • High output power and excellent receiversensitivity for outstanding in-plant RF coverage andoutdoor range• • • • • Rated range of 5 miles with unobstructed line-of-sight (farther using repeaters and/or higher gainantennas)• • • • • Coexists with Data-Linc’s Smart Spectrum™SRM6210E frequency hopping technology for hybrid900 MHz and 2.4 GHz RF SCADA systems• • • • • Wireless connections to PLCs, HMIs, Ethernet I/Osystems and portable computers• • • • • Compatible with WiFi and IEEE 802.11b compliantdevices• • • • • Functions as a wireless access point, wirelessbridge or remote repeater• • • • • Supports point-to-point, point-to-multipoint and peer-to-peer topologies• • • • • Compact, flexible design with universal mountingincluding an optional DIN rail connector• • • • • Web page (HTML) configuration and diagnostics• • • • • Built-in data encryption and authentication for addedsecurity• • • • • Factory or field configured for your application fortrouble-free installation• • • • • AC or DC poweredFastLincTM Industrial Ethernet Wireless Modemsare a high-speed, secure wireless solution using2.4 GHz direct sequence technology. They areavailable in stand-alone Ethernet (FLC810E) andPCMCIA card (FLC800C) models.FastLinc modems have a rated range of 5 mileswith unobstructed line-of-sight, farther usingrepeaters and/or higher gain antennas. With anoutput power much higher than commercial IEEE802.11b products, they provide longer outdoorrange and broader indoor coverage.The FLC810E includes wireless bridge mode forlinking remote plant networks, access point modefor creating wireless hotspots within industrialplants and wireless connections between PLCs,HMIs, and Ethernet I/O systems. It can beconfigured as a wireless bridge repeater toextend range and overcome line-of-sight (LOS)obstructions. The high power FLC800C (PCMCIAcard) allows for network communications ofportable computers with a robust wirelessconnection.FastLinc modems can coexist with Data-Linc’spopular Smart SpectrumTM frequency hoppingtechnology, permitting both high-speed and longrange wireless networks ideally suited for utilitySCADA systems.The modems are easy to configure and troubleshoot with built-in diagnostics using a web-basedinterface. As with all Data-Linc products, supportservices such as pre-sale project consultation,post-sale tech support with PLC expertise and sitesurvey planning assistance are part of theData-Linc Group commitment.• Connect remote plant networks without monthly phone line charges• Wireless SCADA communications for pump stations, well heads, pipelines, storage tanks, etc.• Wireless Ethernet I/O to moving equipment (over head cranes, transfer cars, turntables, etc.)• Portable computer communications for mobile HMIs and maintenance stations• Wireless hotspots in industrial plantsAPPLICATIONS
