economyNarrowband radio modems
Transparent radio modems of the ECONOMY range are primarily designed for smaller networks and applications in which security of transmission and access to the radio channel are resolved within the application itself.
Within the MORSE system they are generally installed in separate networks. A combination of PROFI (backbone network) and ECONOMY (last mile) radio modems is usually used in large-scale systems.
A modern, digital solution of the radio part (Software Defined Radio) of the radio modem provides a wide tuning range including a programmable channel spacing.
Typical applications
- Telemetry & SCADA - water, gas, power, oil and coal mining industries…
- Transaction networks - POS, lottery
- Security and surveillance
Benefits
- Long-range coverage of up to tens of kilometres (without the need for direct line of sight)
- Fully transparent network with the option of retranslations
- Data security on RF channel – 32 bit CRC
- The posibility of setup of packet length on RF channel (fragmentation) as well as on RS232 (MTU)
- Data rate of up to 10.4 kbps in the 25 kHz channel + built in data compression
- Wide tuning range up to 31 MHz
- SW adjustable channel spacing: 25; 12.5; 6.25 kHz
- Ethernet and RS232 interfaces
- Configuration via www browser
- Local and remote diagnostics
- Rx/Tx switching time <1.5 ms
- Adjustable RF power: 0.5 or 2 W
- Supply PoE (Power over Ethernet standard) or 10.8–30 V
- Highly durable – hard aluminum case
- Assembly on DIN rail or using 2 × M3 screws
