Agile-Link™ 2.4 GHz Wireless Base Station




Wireless base stations

Features and Benefits
  • 2.4 GHz direct sequence spread spectrum radio is license free worldwide
  • IEEE 802.15.4 open communication architecture
  • Multiple base stations support simultaneous streaming from multiple nodes to PC
  • Support real-time streaming rates up to 4KHz
  • Analog base station re-creates analog voltage for input into DAQ
  • Communication range up to 70m line-of-sight, up to 300m with optional high-gain antennas



Agile Link Wireless Base Station

Description

2.4 GHz Base Stations are designed to operate as an integral part of the Agile-Link™ high speed wireless sensor network, providing communication between the host PC, Single Board Computer or microcontroller and remote wireless nodes including V-Link®, SG-Link®, G-Link® and TC-Link®.

The USB Base Station provides a plug-and-play USB connection. It is light-weight, easily-mountable, has a small footprint and can communicate individually with any wireless node as well as issue network instructions to multiple wireless nodes.

The Analog Base Station provides a plug-and-play USB or RS-232 connection. It is a small footprint console, can be deployed as a stand-alone (without host PC) and can communicate individually with any wireless node as well as issue network instructions to multiple wireless nodes. It also can provide channelized data to analog data acquisition equipment in hybrid or legacy systems.

The Serial Base Station provides a plug-and-play RS-232 connection. It is light-weight, easily-mountable, has a small footprint and can communicate individually with any wireless node as well as issue network instructions to multiple wireless nodes.

Optional range extending antennas are available on request.
