Rugged 900 Series Ethernet Radio
FreeWave’s ZumLink™ 900 Series is made for secure collection, transport, and control of data in rugged industrial environments. These radios provide a long-range, low-power solution for remote wireless communications — with capabilities that can be seamlessly added as IIoT requirements evolve.
The ZumLink Z9-PE and Z9-P operate in the unlicensed 900 MHz spectrum and utilize Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology for cybersecure data transfer with RF link rates up to 4 Mbps. Performance is further enhanced by FreeWave’s Network Accelerators, which utilize techniques such as packet compression, packet aggregation, forward error correction, and Adaptive Spectrum Learning to maximize network throughput, efficiency, and reliability.
ZumLink radios are ideal in field area networks, systems, and devices such as those used by oil and gas, precision agriculture, water / wastewater, smart cities, and utilities, and deliver advanced features to maximize performance of virtually any M2M, SCADA, or IIoT application used today or in future operations.
