THE FASTEST WAY TO WIRELESS
ConnexLink
TM
stand-alone radio modules are set up in minutes to cut
the cables between RS232 or RS485 devices. Their flexibility and
economic price allow users to quickly upgrade wired terminals to
cordless operation in industrial, commercial, and residential
applications.
Powered by a 125mW 2.4GHz radio or a 1000mW 900MHz radio, each
unit is small and easily portable for use in mobile and temporary
settings, as well as fixed installations. Optional software enables custom
configurations based on user needs.
ConnexLink implements a proprietary communication protocol to
provide secure local data transmissions. Because it uses FHSS
technology, the data remains reliable over distances of up to 20 miles
(32 km) line-of sight (900MHz version). Use of license-free frequency
bands ensures that units are ready to use with no further certification
requirements. Every unit is backed by a full one-year warranty.
ConnexLink radio modules provide simple elimination of cables with a
wireless link replacement. Every unit is backed by a full one year
warranty.

FLEXIBLE RF PROTOCOL
Laird Technologies’ embedded transparent protocol simplifies the integration process by allowing seamless plug-and-play
installation. As each unit receives raw data, it manages over-the-air protocol to assure successful communication. Headers,
data packet length, and CRCs are not required. Broadcast communication to all devices or address packets to a specific
destination using unique MAC addresses embedded in each unit.
