The MOXA NPort W2150 Plus and W2250 Plus connect serial devices, such as PLCs, meters, and sensors, to a wireless LAN, and are the first device servers that supports 802.11 a/b/g, giving users a versatile solution for wireless connectivity. The WLAN environment offers an ideal solution for applications that require moving devices frequently from place to place.
Network devices can use 802.11a when 802.11b or 802.11g are too crowded. In addition, they support all major variations of the wireless LAN standard so that they can be used in different countries around the world.
With security often a major concern when implementing a wireless application, NPort Plus now supports WEP, WPA, and WPA2 to handle system security. WPA and WPA2 enterprise mode use a Radius Server for authentication, helping ensure that the wireless network is both safe and reliable.
