Introduction
The Moxa AWK-4121 outdoor wireless AP/Bridge/Client is an ideal 3-in-1 solution for industrial applications that are hard to wire, too expensive to wire, or use mobile equipment that connects to a TCP/IP network. The Moxa AWK-4121 can operate at temperatures ranging from -40 to 75°C, and its dust-tight and weatherproof design is IP68-rated and allows you to set up a WLAN, or extend existing wired networks to outdoor locations. In addition, the Moxa AWK-4121 is equipped with detachable antennas to give you the flexibility of choosing your own specialpurpose antennas. The Moxa AWK-4121’s two redundant DC power inputs increases the reliability of the power supply, and can be powered via PoE for easier deployment.
