Introduction
Moxa’s AWK-6222 outdoor wireless AP/bridge/client avoids interruptions in WLAN transmissions with its dual 2.4/5 GHz RF modules, which allow two independent wireless connections over different frequencies. To maximize wireless and wired network availability, the AWK-6222 can incorporate Ethernet redundancy using RSTP, and power redundancy using dual DC power inputs and PoE. In addition, the AWK-6222 is housed in an IP68 metal casing with M12 connectors for total protection against dust, water, vibration, and other environmental effects. This rugged unit supports seamless roaming to achieve ultra-reliable and redundant wireless networks under challenging outdoor, mobile conditions. These industrially hardened features let you set up a rock-solid WLAN to ensure that your entire network will always be in service.
Ruggedized Design for Critical Environments
- PoE and dual DC power inputs
- Dual RF design with 2.4 or 5 GHz dual-band operation for redundant WLAN connections
- Redundant roaming for fast and stable handoff
- Ethernet redundancy via RSTP
Redundancy to Increase System Reliability
- IP68-rated metal housing and -40 to 75°C wide operating temperature
- Long-distance wireless transmission over 10 km
- Anti-vibration M12 design and waterproof/dust-tight RJ45 connectors
- Wall, DIN-Rail, and pole mounting options for versatile outdoor installation
