Introduction

The AWK-1165C Series industrial wireless client is designed to meet the growing need for efficient data transmissions in high-density deployments scenarios through IEEE 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) technology. The AWK-1165C is compliant with industrial standards and approvals covering operating temperature, power input voltage, surge, ESD, and vibration. The compact form factor with DIN-rail or optional wall mounting easily fits into industrial machines or control cabinets, offering reliable wireless connectivity. The AWK-1165C can operate on the 2.4 or 5 GHz band and is backwards compatible with existing 802.11a/b/g/n/ac deployments to future-proof your wireless investments.

Advanced 802.11ax Industrial Wireless Solution

  • 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6 compliant client backwards compatible with Wi-Fi 4/ Wi-Fi 5 for flexible deployment

  • DFS channel support allows a wider range of 5 GHz channel selection to avoid interference from existing wireless infrastructure

  • Wi-Fi 6 OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access) technology enables concurrent communication with multiple clients for improved network efficiency

  • Wi-Fi 6 Spatial Reuse technology increases network capacity by allowing more simultaneous transmissions in dense environments

Advanced Wireless Technology

  • Seamless roaming with client-based Turbo Roaming The Turbo Roaming recovery time indicated herein is an average of test results documented, in optimized conditions, across APs configured with interference-free 20-MHz RF channels, WPA2-PSK security, and default Turbo Roaming parameters. The clients are configured with 3-channel roaming at 100 Kbps traffic load. Other conditions may also impact roaming performance. For more information about Turbo Roaming parameter settings, refer to the product manual. for < 150 ms roaming recovery time between APs

  • The Troubleshooting SSID feature enables wireless diagnostics by activating a temporary SSID when the connection to the AP is lost in Client-based modes
