Rugged ISM Radio Modems

Field proven to withstand demanding outdoor applications

The IP66 rated RM868 and RM24 radio modems provide complex wireless data transmission functions in demanding outdoor environments. They can be successfully used in various network topologies such as point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, peer-to-peer and mesh, with a superior degree of versatility.

 

Assembled in a metal enclosure they are field proven to withstand the harshest environments. User configurable to RS232 or RS422/RS485, designed to work for a wide range of supply voltages while still needing very low power to operate, they are fit for a wide range of industrial uses. Due to their ease of use, high communication reliability and rugged construction, the RM868 and RM24 modems are a suitable solution for a variety of applications.
