Key features

Data speed & Network throughput

Network throughput

The only performance parameter that users care about is the number of packets/bytes of payload successfully delivered over the network in a given time period. Never rely solely on Gross data rates typically listed in data sheets regardless of the fact that RipEX2 offers the highest gross data rates and is the only fully CE & FCC certified 256 QAM radio modem on the market. 

Long range

Each radio hop is typically 5 – 50 km, right up to 100 km ● Line of sight not required ● Any unit can work simultaneously as a repeater ● Unlimited number of repeaters on the way ● RF Output power 0.1–10 W ● Exceptional receiver sensitivity ● High resistance to multipath propagation and interference ● Any IP network (e.g. Internet) can interconnect any RipEX units

Duplex

Full duplex (simultaneous Rx and Tx) on two frequencies for p-t-p (RipEX2) ● Half duplex (Rx and Tx switching) either on one or two frequencies (RipEX, RipEX2, RipEX2e)

Individual link options

Different Modulation (Data speed), FEC and Retries are possible to set for individual radio links from each unit

Auto-speed

Receiver is automatically adjusted to the data rate of the incoming frame

Backup routes

Automatic failover to an alternative path ● Alternative path(s) can be on Radio channel or Cellular or any IP network

IP behaviour

Native IP router

Each individual interface like Radio, ETH‘s and Cellular have their own IP/Mask, while COM ports are routed in the standard way – messages to them can be delivered to an IP address of any interface as UDP datagrams with the selected UDP port numbers.

Bridge mode

Transparent protocol on the Radio channel ● Packets received on any interface (ETH, COM) are broadcast to the respective interfaces on all units in the network. Packets received on COM are broadcast to all COM’s at all remote sites, allowing you to connect more RTU’s to each remote unit.

Router mode

Flexible or Base driven protocol on Radio channel ● Packets are addressed, routed and acknowledged

Ethernet ports

Ethernet ports can be combined as one or more Switch(es) with routing capabilities among them

Ethernet subnets

Multiple Ethernet subnets (aliases) identified by its IP/Mask can be defined within each Ethernet interface

Static routing

Each interface (Radio, Cellular, Ethernet…) has its own IP/Mask ● Mesh network over-the-air ● Direct peer-to-peer communication (not necessarily via the base station) ● Standard IP routing even on Radio channel ● Metric for each route

Dynamic routing

Routing tables are not needed at all ● RipEX2 is the only radio modem on the market which offer IP based full-featured Dynamic routing optimized for narrowband Radio channel ● See details

Link management

Automatic switchover between main and several backup links with priorities ● Automatic checking of the functionality of backup links and switching back to the higher priority link when it is restored ● IPsec tunnels can be bound to specific links via the Peer ID parameter, so that they are also swapped

PPPoE

PPP protocol over Ethernet ● Typically used for connection to Internet Service Provide over fixed line while Cellular network is a backup ● Client only ● Allows wide configuration of data speed, data volumes etc.

VLAN

802.1Q ● ‘Unlimited‘ number of VLAN (1-4096) ● Any number of VLANs can be assigned to Subnets ● RipEX management can be done over separate VLAN ● Application note

Terminal server

TCP proxy (RipEX)

Converts TCP into UDP and vice versa ● TCP run only locally between connected device and RipEX on LAN ● Only payload (user) data are transferred over-the-air, i.e. less traffic on Radio channel, no more problems with TCP timeouts ● Video

ARP proxy (RipEX)

RipEX can mimic any IP address (typ. RTU behind the Radio channel) ● Suitable in case when RTU’s in the network are without routing capabilities (the default gateway cannot be configured) and they are within the same subnet ● In the case of RipEX2, GRE tunnel can be used instead of an ARP proxy ● Application note ● Video

Unique options

Radio & SCADA protocols

RADIO PROTOCOLS

Protocol that manages traffic on the Radio channel is the most critical part of the overall Network throughput.

Only one protocol on Radio channel is not enough, because different applications have different requirements for Collision management, Response time, Jitter, Latency and Communication topology.

Only RipEX provides three different protocols which are optimized for different applications, from legacy serial to modern TCP/IP such as IEC104, making the network reliable and stable, even with a high number of RTU’s.

Base driven Flexible Transparent
Topology Star Tree Any
Repeaters One on each link Unlimited 1-2 possible
Device mode Router Router Bridge
Application Any, TCP/IP optimized Any Master-slave
Base stations Dedicated Available Available
Collisions Impossible Managed Unmanaged
Packet acknowledgement Yes Yes No

Link management
(RipEX2, RipEX2e)

Routing rules are static ● Several backup links with priorities ● Backup links functionality is continuously tested (Test period, Repeat period, Reply timeout, Passes, Retries…) ● Switching back to the higher priority link when it is restored ● IPsec tunnels can be bound to particular links via Peer ID parameter so they are also swapped respectively

Network settings

 Mode
  • Bridge: Lowest overhead protocol without access to radio channels. Suitable for full duplex point-to-point communications and polling networks.
  • BDP: Highest (but most effective) overhead anti-collision protocol. Suitable for TCP connection.
  • Flexible: Random access radio channel protocol. Suitable for complex and unlimited network topology with Report-by-Exception networks.
More information about radio protocols in the RipEX2 manual.
 Channel spacing [kHz]
There is an approximately linear relationship between the capacity of the radio channel and the occupied bandwidth.
 Average message size bytes
User data size without any headers (IP, TCP, UDP, …). The length of the data transmitted has a major impact on the overall capacity of the network. Long packets have a lower overhead, which is an advantage, but for the Flexible Protocol, too long packets are a disadvantage due to the increased possibility of collisions on the radio channel.
 Number of sites
Total number of stations communicating between. A higher number of stations increases the probability of collision for networks in Flexible mode.
 Number of stations behind repeater
The number of stations out of the total that are behind the repeater. The BDP protocol allows a maximum of two radio hops between the base and the remote radio.
 Average hops per path to remote
Average hop count to the remote sites. E.g. 9 remote stations directly connected to the center (one radio hop) and one remote station over one repeater (two radio hops) results in 1.1. The Flexible protocol has an unlimited number of radio hops between centrum and remote radio.
 

Results

The results obtained from this calculator should be considered approximate and are primarily intended to provide a rough overview of expected network performance. Actual network throughput can vary significantly depending on a number of factors. More information


One of the most important factors is the compressibility of the data being transmitted, as less compressible data can reduce transmission efficiency. The real frame reception time also plays a critical role in accessing the radio channel.

In addition, the network topology - specifically the arrangement and interconnection of individual devices - can have a significant impact on performance, as can various environmental factors such as interference from other radio signals, terrain obstacles or weather conditions.

All of these parameters can cause the actual throughput to be higher or lower than the calculator results.

For these reasons, only the following key parameters are included in the calculation. Setting the radio protocol and transmission parameters in RipEX radio routers is more complex than the parameters listed in this calculator.
