Mesh I/O Systems

Wireless I/O, also known as radio telemetry, connect directly to sensor and control signals, and transmit the signal values by radio. The signals are either re-created as similar signals, or output as a data connection — Ethernet, Profibus, Modbus etc. Wireless I/O networks can be as simple as two units transferring a small number of signals from one point to another, or they can be complex data-acquisition networks with multiple “master” interfaces to external systems.

Mesh I/O Systems

Weidmuller’ s innovative configuration technology combines the reliability of 900MHz, FHSS modulation with mesh architecture to automatically detect and route the most efficient path to the destination node.

The high power 1W receiver sensitivity combined with frequency hopping and IP-based addressing provides reliable, self-healing, encrypted communications up to 115kbps.
