F.Fonseca presents new possibilities for industrial wireless solutions from HMS

HMS presents a new and updated version of the popular Wireless Bridge Gateway. Anybus® Wireless Bridge II supports wireless communications, reliable, up to 400 meters and can communicate via Bluetooth or WLAN. It is ideal for replacing Ethernet cabling in locations that are difficult to access, dangerous or where it is even impossible to install.
 
Replacement of cable or access point
With the Anybus® II gateways implementation, automation engineers are able to achieve new and smarter infrastructures for their networks.
Often used as an Ethernet cable replacement (as point-to-point communication), Wireless Bridge II can also be used as an access point for several WLAN / Bluetooth nodes such as smartphones or tablets. In this process we have achieved great savings thanks to the reduction in the use of Ethernet cabling.
 
What's new?
The new Anybus® Wireless Bridge II supports a greater range in the wireless network (400 meters) and includes an even more powerful wireless antenna in its construction.
This gateway is easy to configure, either by buttons or via the new integrated web interface.
 
Network troubleshooting for system integrators
By connecting industrial devices and networks wirelessly, Anybus® Wireless Bridge II makes life easier for system integrators and automation engineers who sometimes need to create connections across high-risk, local areas difficult to access or mobile installations where cables are not desirable.
This wireless gateway is a proven solution for establishing communications on the most common industrial networks such as PROFINET, EtherNet / IP, BACnet / IP and Modbus TCP, providing users with a robust and maintenance-free wireless connection.
 
This gateway is suitable for application in any industry, regardless of the industry.
