THE INDUSTRIAL NETWORK COMPANY
The N-TRON
®
702M12-W Industrial Wireless Radio offers
outstanding performance and ease of use. It is ideally suited for
connecting wireless devices to a wired network or for connecting
two wired networks in an IP67 environment, where it is not possible,
impractical, or too expensive to install cable.

Applications
In industrial environments, the installation of fi ber or Cat5e cable
and associated power cables is diffi cult or cost prohibitive. There
are also applications which require communication with mobile
devices such as laptop computers, forklifts, cockpits or control
centers on mobile equipment such as cranes, and other devices
which are impossible to connect with copper or fi ber cable. The
N-TRON
702M12-W provides a wireless connection that can
be quickly and easily deployed. With it's wide operating
temperature range and 1 million hours MTBF, the 702M12-W
offers the industrial ruggedness that customers have come to
expect of N-TRON
products. The IP67 sealed enclosure insures
that outdoor, wash down, and the most dusty environments will
present no problems to the 702M12-W. Three antennas enable the
use of Multiple-In, Multiple-Out (MIMO) technology for increased
throughput. Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology allows the
702M12-W to receive power through the Cat5e cable from a PoE
sourcing device, such as the N-TRON
105TX-POE Switch. This
eliminates the need for power cables or power supplies for the
702M12-W. Using wireless and PoE technology makes temporary
deployment of network nodes much easier because only one Cat5e
cable is required.
Industrial Packaging and Specifi cations
The 702M12-W is specifi cally designed to operate in industrial
environments. With it's rugged enclosure and industrial specifi cations
such as extended shock and vibrations specs plus redundant power
inputs, the 702M12-W easily meets and exceeds the operating
parameters of the connected equipment.
Multiple Wireless Modes
The 702M12-W provides a number of confi guration options that
allow it to be customized to suit specifi c application requirements.
Station: In "station" confi guration the 702M12-W is used to connect
a single device (MAC Address) to a wireless access point.
Station, WDS (Wireless Distribution System): In "station, WDS"
mode the 702M12-W can be connected to a remote wired switch
and will allow multiple devices (MAC Address forwarding) to be
connected to the wireless access point with WDS activated.
Access Point: The "Access Point" mode allows the 702M12-W to
serve as a wireless switch for the attached wireless stations. Wireless
access points are commonly used to create one wireless local area
network (WLAN) that spans an area around the Access Point. Each
access point typically supports up to 253 stations.
Access Point, WDS (Wireless Distribution System): The
702M12-W in "Access Point, WDS" mode allows wireless
connection of a number of access points to extend the coverage of
the wireless network. The main base Access Point in WDS mode
is extended using a series of relay Access points in WDS mode
(Extended Service Set) and can in turn form a WLAN consisting of
thousands of stations. All stations should be confi gured in "Station
WDS" mode. Correctly confi gured switches using WDS will create
a single network, providing station mobility throughout the wireless
network.
Multiple Network Modes
Bridge: In this mode the 702M12-W will operate in Layer two
without network segmentation.
Router: Router operating mode offers Layer three routing to allow
network segmentation.
