Overview

The NPort® W2150 Plus and W2250 Plus are the ideal choice for connecting your serial devices, such as PLCs, meters, and sensors, to a wireless LAN. Your communications software will be able to access the serial devices from anywhere over a wireless LAN. Moreover, the Wireless device servers require fewer cables and are ideal for applications that involve difficult wiring situations. In Infrastructure Mode or Ad-Hoc Mode, the NPort® W2250 Plus and W2150 Plus can Wi-Fi networks at offices and factories allow users to move, or "roam," between several APs (Access Points). The NPort® W2150 Plus and WLAN environment offers an excellent solution for devices that are frequently moved from place to place.
