84 Device description
5.2.7 WiFi (WLAN) connection
Measurement devices can optionally be equipped with a built-in WiFi (WLAN) adapter. An alternative
wireless network connection may especially useful in applications such as mobile test drives.
Measurement devices can be equipped with WiFi (WLAN) adapters conforming to the standard IEEE
802.11g ("Draft-g"), which achieve maximum gross transfer rates of 54 Mbit/s.
Each antenna of the corresponding system is labeled ex-factory at imc Berlin:
Ø
imc CRx - 400; antenna with SMA Male — only fits with devices with RP-SMA (SMA Female)
Ø
imc CRx - 2000; antenna with RP-SMA plug (SMA Female) — only fits with devices with SMA Male
The "2000G" devices allow installation of optional WiFi (WLAN) adapters conforming to the standard IEEE
802.11n ("Draft-n"), which by using multiple antennas provides higher data rates. Two externally
connectable antennas are supported (standard SMA connection), which together achieve a data rate of
300 Mbit/s.
Technical details: WiFi
The WLAN antenna with an SMA male terminal is no longer offered by the manufacturer. imc has a
modified substitute antenna from the same manufacturer (this affects systems shipped as of August,
2014). For this reason, imc has changed the connection terminals on the devices (SMA Male). Devices
previously having RP-SMA (SMA Female) terminals will instead have SMA Male terminals in future.
There is a new label for the new antenna to differentiate:
Ø
imc CRx - 400 Typ 2; antenna with RP-SMA plug (SMA Female) — only fits with devices with SMA Male
The antenna labeled: "imc CRx - 2000" can be used for all imc CRONOS with built-in WiFi (WLAN)
adapter (SMA Female).
In order to make the label of the antenna for all devices uniform, we changed the label as follows:
Please pay attention to the terminal connection on your device!
WiFi antenna with RPSMA (female) is only compatible to RPSMA (male) on your device.
