Industrial grade 802.11 communication

Airborne™ is a line of highly integrated 802.11 wireless modules. Airborne Embedded CF Radio Modules provide instant LAN and Internet connectivity, and connect through standard interfaces to a wide variety of applications. By contrast, the wireless device server and ethernet bridge modules include the radio as well as a base-band processor, an application processor and software for a “drop-in” web-enabled WiFi solution. With all the modules, there’s no need to develop the software or the RF and communications expertise in-house, OEMs can realize reduced product development costs and a quick time-to-market.

The extremely small footprint design makes Airborne easy to embed into new or existing designs. The radio integrates the 802.11 standards including the 802.11i security standard. The radio includes a full implementation of AES/CCMP, WPA and WEP security mechanisms. Enterprise applications are enabled by support for EAP.

Additionally, the radio supports the 802.11e Quality of Service (QOS) and 802.11h Transmit Power Control (TPC ) standards. Allowing you access to the latest functionality and maximizing interoperability with existing infrastructure.

Equipment with an Airborne™ Embedded Radio Module can be monitored and controlled by a handheld device, by a PC in a central location or over the Internet.

The Evaluation & Design Kit provides software and utilities that allow a developer to quickly and easily operate and evaluate the radio module in a Wireless Device Server module or Wireless Ethernet Bridge module.
