Feature Summary

The MDS entraNET design makes installation and configuration an
easy task, while allowing for configuration changes in the future.
• Long-range transmission over favorable, unobstructed terrain,
with sufficient antenna heights
• Fast, 106 kbps data speed—Ten times faster than 9.6 kbps
radios
• Low power consumption—Sleep and Shutdown modes to
enable solar-powered operation
• Repeater configurations—A repeater scheme can be established
to extend the transmission range or to work around obstructions
in a network. This is accomplished by connecting two radios
back to back at a single site.
• Industrial-grade product—Extended temperature range for
trouble-free operation in extreme environments
• Robust radio communications—Designed to perform in
high-interference environments
• MDS Security Suite—Blocks common attack schemes and pre-
vents "rogue" hardware from gaining access to or control of a
network. Common attack events are logged and reported via
alarms.
• Simple setup—Ethernet bridge configuration option requires
minimal setup
• Serial ports—Embedded terminal server for serial interface
equipment
