1.1. Introduction
RipEX is a best-in-class radio modem, not only in terms of data transfer speed. This Software Defined
Radio with Linux OS has been designed with attention to detail, performance and quality. All relevant
state-of-the-art concepts have been carefully implemented.
RipEX provides 24×7 reliable service for mission-critical applications like SCADA & Telemetry for Util-
ities, SmartGrid power networks or transaction networks connecting lottery terminals, POS or ATM’s.
Any unit can serve as the central master, repeater, remote terminal, or all of these simultaneously, with
a configuration interface easily accessible from a web browser.
Anybody with even basic knowledge of IP networking can set up a RipEX within a matter of minutes
and maintain the network quite easily.
