1-4 TranSphere TS Wireless Extended Range IP Networking Transceivers – January 2008 GFK-2489
1
Feature Summary The TranSphere TS Wireless design makes installation and
configuration an easy task, while allowing for configuration changes in the future.
▪ Long-range transmission over favorable, unobstructed terrain, with sufficient antenna
heights
▪ Low power consumption—Sleep and Shutdown modes to enable solar-powered operation
▪ Repeater configurations—A repeater scheme can be established to extend the
transmission range or to work around obstructions in a network. This is accomplished by
connecting two radios back to back at a single site.
▪ Industrial-grade product—Extended temperature range for trouble-free operation in
extreme environments
▪ Robust radio communications—Designed to perform in high-interference environments
▪ Security Suite—Blocks common attack schemes and prevents “rogue” hardware from
gaining access to or control of a network. Common attack events are logged and reported
via alarms.
▪ Fast, 106 kbps data speed—Ten times faster than 9.6 kbps radios
▪ Simple setup—Ethernet bridge configuration option requires minimal setup
▪ Serial ports—Gateway for serial interface equipment to IP or Ethernet networks with an
embedded terminal server
