Overview
The NPort W2150A/W2250A is the ideal choice for connecting your serial devices, such as PLCs, meters, and sensors, to a wireless LAN. Your communications software will be able to access the serial devices from anywhere over a wireless LAN. Moreover, the wireless device servers require fewer cables and are ideal for applications that involve difficult wiring situations. In Infrastructure Mode or Ad-Hoc Mode, the NPort W2150A/W2250A can connect to Wi-Fi networks at offices and factories to allow users to move, or “roam,” between several APs (Access Points), and offer an excellent solution for devices that are frequently moved from place to place.
