Wireless networks for consumer and enterprise spaces are a commonly available service, provided by telecommunications companies worldwide. However, wireless networks for industrial applications are on a whole different level.
Typically, industrial wireless radios are used for two or more computers to communicate, often in remote areas where internet access isn’t available. Industrial radios help facilitate data connections in these spots so that any of a host of different facilities, such as oil and gas rigs, military installations, agricultural facilities, and more, can operate seamlessly.
These types of wireless connections and devices aren’t always readily available from commercial network providers. Industrial radios often need to operate in frequency ranges of between 150 MHz to 2.4 GHz and within environmental temperatures of -40° to 75°C. This kind of flexibility isn’t possible with mobile devices that work on conventional cell tower reception.
Wireless radios are also highly flexible and easy to reconfigure. This makes them versatile across industries and applications, giving you a scalable option for your enterprise. They’re also very secure. You want to ensure that your wireless communications don’t fall prey to hackers or industrial espionage.
