Airborne™ Embedded Wireless Ethernet Bridge Module
Ethernet to 802.11b/g Wireless LAN
WLNG-ET-DP100 Enterprise Series
using one of the available, easy to use
management interfaces. The Airborne
unit allows you to customize their settings
to meet your application demands.
KEY FEATURES
Extended operating temperature
range (-30°C to +85°C) and
environmental specifications, including
shock and vibration tolerance
Advanced security: WEP
(64 & 128 bit), WPA and 802.1x
(LEAP) authentication
Highly integrated transparent
802.11b/g Wireless Ethernet Bridge
Quick time to market and reduced
development costs
Integrated 10 base-T Ethernet PHY
Software-configurable 802.11b/g
interface
Integrated RTOS, TCP/IP Stack
and CLI
Reduces need for RF and
communications expertise
FCC Part 15 Class B Sub C
Modular Approval
5 year warranty
Applications
The Airborne modules have been
designed and tested to provide Wireless
LAN (WLAN) and Internet connectivity
across the harshest of machine to
machine environments including:
transportation
medical
warehouse and logistics
point-of-sale (POS)
industrial automation
military
scientific research
Any system with an existing Ethernet port
can be wirelessly enabled by connecting
the Airborne Ethernet Bridge module
directly to the output of its Ethernet PHY,
maintaining current firmware and
software while enhancing system
functionality.
The Evaluation & Design Kit provides
software and utilities that allow a
developer to quickly and easily operate
and evaluate the Bridge module.
High performance device
networking solutions
Airborne™ is a line of highly integrated
802.11 modules. The wireless ethernet
bridge module includes a radio (which may
be purchased separately), a base-band
processor, an application processor and
software for a “drop-in” web-enabled Wi-Fi
solution. Since there’s no need to develop
the software, or to develop the RF and
communications expertise inhouse, OEMs
can realize reduced product development
costs and a quick time-to-market. This
Airborne Wireless Ethernet Module
provides instant LAN and Internet
connectivity, and connects through a
standard ethernet interface (other Airborne
modules offer standard serial interfaces) to
a wide variety of applications.
Simple configuration, advanced
security
The extremely small footprint design
makes Airborne easy to embed in both
existing and new designs. Supporting
advanced security modes, including WEP,
WPA and LEAP, the module is
interoperable with industry standard 802.11
Access Points and stations. Providing
access to existing infrastructure that
enables access to corporate WLANs,
WANs and even the internet. The built-in
TCP/IP stack and application software
provide embedded devices with this level of
connectivity, without requiring any software
development - only simple configuration
