SRM6000
Wireless Serial Modem
For the 902 to 928 MHz ISM Band
License-free and wirelessoperates in the
902-928 MHz ISM (industrial/scientific/
medical) band
Rated range of up to 25 miles (40 km) and
installed range of up to 35 miles (56 km) with
line-of-sight and an omni direction
antenna- further with repeaters or higher
gain antenna
Employs Spread Spectrum frequency hopping
technology for maximum data integrity-
even in high interference environments
Factory or field configured for your
application-ensuring trouble free installation
User configurable for Master, Remote,
Repeater or Repeater/Remote mode
Frequency key options allow for different
systems to operate simultaneously in close
proximity
Data-Linc Groups wireless, license-free SRM6000 Serial
Modem offers superior reliability, versatility and
performance for wireless serial transmission. The
SRM6000 is factory pre-configured for easy, hassle-free
installation. It offers an unsurpassed rated range of up to
25 miles (40 km) and an installed range of up to 35
miles (56 km) with line-of-sight and an omni directional
antenna, further with repeaters or higher gain antenna
(extended range capability available).
The SRM6000 employs Smart SpectrumTM frequency
hopping spread spectrum (FHSS), technology in the
902-928 MHz frequency band for secure, robust
communication. Data-Linc Groups FHSS technology,
coupled with 32-bit CRC error correction, enables the
SRM6000 to deliver critical information time after time.
Costly FR site surveys are usually unnecessary and an
FCC site license is not requred. The SRM6000 wireless
technology does not require hard wire or fiber cable,
which is often expensive and difficult to install.
The SRM6000 supports a number of configurations,
including point-to-point and point-to-multi-point and even
multiple Repeaters if required. Multi-point operation
permits an unlimited number of Remotes. The SRM6000
can also function as a Repeater/Remote to extend range
or work around obstructions. The SRM6000 also offers a
store-and-forward Repeater function for systems that
require Repeaters. Back-to-back radio modems are not
required for Repeater function.
Industrial Applications
The SRM6000 is ideal for industrial automation
applications with:
PLCs located on moving platforms, overhead
cranes and turntables or other revolving equipment
Remote PLC programming
SCADA systems, such as water/wastewater, utilities
and oil/gas systems
Underground or off-shore communications
High RFI environments (e.g., steel, manufacturing)
Industrial automation machine control on plant floors
