Properties and functions
The BAT54-F enables you to set up WLANs (Wireless Local Area Networks)
in order to connect individual devices (PCs and mobile computers) with a lo-
cal network. In contrast to a conventional LAN, the communication here is by
means of radio links, not network cables.
The BAT54-F devices can be used for both new installations and for expand-
ing an existing LAN. Thanks to their high level of flexibility, you can combine
large, small, mobile and non-mobile locations. Anywhere that high band-
widths, stable operation and network security is required, wireless LAN with
the BAT54-F provides the ideal solution.
The BAT54-F is an access point/access client with a WLAN interface for du-
alband operation in accordance with IEEE802.11b/g and IEEE802.11a/h,
and it is specially designed for outdoor use with protection class IP67. The
BAT54-F can be installed quickly and easily using wizards via the Windows
configuration software or the Web interface. The wide range of BAT anten-
nas provide the correct solution for every requirement - even out-of-the-box
solutions.
The devices are designed for the special requirements of industrial automa-
tion. They are suitable for outdoor use and in environments with the danger
of explosions. They meet the relevant industry standards, provide very high
operational reliability, even under extreme conditions, and also long-term re-
liability and flexibility. The devices operate without fans and have a redun-
dant voltage supply. You can mount the devices on a wall or a pole.
It can be easily managed via a Web browser, via Telnet, with a management
software product (such as HiVision) or locally on the device (V.24 interface).
The devices differ with regard to their certification and the type of integrated
intenna (if included).
The devices provide you with a large range of features:
Sturdy metal housing with protection class IP67
Secure wall and pole mounting
Redundant power supply with two 24V supplies and one Power over ETH-
ERNET supply
Temperature range –20° to +55°C
Wireless LAN interfaces in accordance with IEEE802.11b/g and
IEEE802.11a/h
