Advantech's EKI-1361 and EKI-1362 wireless device servers are 1- and 2-port RS232/422/485 to 802.11 b/g/n WLAN serial device servers.

The lightweight servers have been designed for use in areas where signal strength and reliability may be affected. To counteract these issues, they use MIMO 2x2 technology that transmits two signals simultaneously, which ensures greater efficiency by ensuring they are not jammed by other devices.

To further aid reliability, they have a fast roaming design. This means that when moving from one access point to another where signal strength can weaken, these switches can quickly switch to a new access point without degrading the data.

The sensors weigh 800 g each, have a small footprint and provide a range of mounting options and antenna extensions. In industries where the models are fixed, they can have a peer-to-peer connection without using wireless access points, therefore making it cost effective in areas that would otherwise need to have a long wired connection.
