Easy to Apply Wireless Modules Go Where Other Systems Can’t.

The Banner SureCross Wireless System is a radio device network with integrated I/O 

that can operate in extreme environments while eliminating the need for costly wiring 
runs. The most basic SureCross network includes a Gateway system controller and one or 
more Nodes that monitor and/or control I/O in remote locations. Nodes are easily deployed 
throughout a facility, for gathering data to be concentrated at the Gateway. Installation is 
fast and easy with flexible mounting and power options. Nodes can be either line-powered 
(10 to 30V dc) or 

Flex

Powered with multi-year battery life providing power for communications 

and to external sensors.

The Gateway can act as a master device in a star topology autonomously controlling 

input to output mapping, or a Modbus Slave in a host control system using RS-485 Modbus 
RTU. To relay mapped I/O longer distances, a Gateway can be positioned between two 
Nodes to increase transmission range of the network.

SureCross is distinctly superior to conventional wireless networks, facilitating sensing 

and actuation on the same network. Not to mention its ability to transmit the status of 
each I/O point and continuously monitor the health of each Node’s operational status and 
signal integrity.
