SATELLAR XT 5R: Radio unit (RU)
Using SATELLAR, customers build their own independent radio data communication network.
This document presents the specifications and the intended use of the RU. The properties of other units are
described in their own manuals. Reading them is necessary to understand the operation of the RU.
Data communication
SATELLAR operates either as a transparent radio link, essentially replacing a cable, for classic RS-232 /
RS-485 / RS-422 based protocols or as a wireless router in an IP-based network. When the RU is acting as a
router station in an IP network without any local Ethernet connection, it can be used as a standalone device.
In stations where a local Ethernet connection is needed it must be used together with a CU.
