abling/disabling remote access channels, and password protection.
Remember, security is not a one-step process that can simply be turned
on and forgotten. It must be practiced and enforced at multiple levels,
24 hours-a-day and 7 days-a-week.
See “MDS SECURITY SUITE” on
Page 14
for more information about the transceiver’s security tools.
Robust Radio
Operation
The transceiver is designed for frequency-hopping spread-spectrum
operation (DTS for iNET II) in the license-free 900 MHz Industrial, Sci-
entific, and Medical (ISM) band. It can provide reliable communica-
tions at distances up to 25 miles (40 km) over favorable terrain, even in
the presence of weak signals or interference.
Flexible Services
Users with a mixture of equipment having Ethernet and serial data inter-
faces can choose to use one or two of the user-configurable serial ports
through the use of a Remote Dual Gateway. This flexibility allows the
transceiver to provide services in data networks that are being migrated
from legacy serial/EIA-232-based hardware to the faster and more
easily interfaced Ethernet world.
Flexible
Management
Configuration, commissioning, troubleshooting and other maintenance
activities can be done locally or remotely. Four different modes of
access are available: local RS-232 console, local or remote IP access
(via Telnet), web browser, and SNMP (v1/v2/v3). The text-based inter-
face (RS-232 console and Telnet) is implemented in the form of
easy-to-follow menus, and the terminal server configuration includes a
wizard to help you set up the units correctly.
Transceiver
Features
The transceiver’s design makes the installation and configuration easy,
while allowing for changes in the future.
• Long Range—Up to 25 miles (40 km) in line-of-sight condi-
tions. Repeater stations may be used to extend the operational
range. (Refer to
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS on Page 146
for more detailed information on range.)
• Industrial-Grade Product—Extended temperature range for
trouble-free operation in extreme environments
• Robust Radio Communications—Designed to operate in dense,
high-interference environments
• Robust Network Security—Prevents common attack schemes
and hardware from gaining access or control of network. Com-
mon attack events logged and reported by alarms.
• High Speed—512 kbps is 50-times faster than 9.6 kbps radios
• Plug-and-Play Connectivity—Ethernet bridge configuration
option requires minimal setup
• Serial Ports—Gateway for serial-based equipment to IP/Ether-
net networks with embedded terminal server. Site-to-site con-
figurations are also possible.
• Single hardware package provides configuration as Access
Point or Remote
