Wireless Device Servers with Wi-Fi & PCMCIA

Wireless-enable your serial devices using SENA's Wireless Device Servers. SENA offers Wireless Device Servers in the areas of Built-in Wireless LAN (802.11 b/g), Built-in Bluetooth Wireless Technology and PC Card supported device servers for wireless device networking.

Wireless Device Servers provide a whole new level of flexibility and mobility. You can connect devices that are inaccessible via cabling. And you can add intelligence to your business by putting mobile devices, such as medical instruments or warehouse equipment, on the network.

Wireless Device Servers are designed for large-scale wireless installations especially in the areas of retail/pos, industrial, medical, and banking sectors, which are traditionally fitted with serial connections. It can be used in a wide range of retail/POS applications including wireless payment and receipt printers.

Available in 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 models that fit in 1U of rack space, SENA Device Servers help maximize IT asset productivity while providing scalability and reducing operational costs.

There are a variety of ways that "Wireless Device Servers" from "Wireless Device Solutions" can be implemented; the two most fundamental options derive from the 802.11 specification itself.

Modes of Operation > Infrastructure Mode Connection

When working in infrastructure mode, the Wireless Device Servers transmits serial device data to the host PC via an access point.

Wireless Device Servers Infrastructure Mode Connection

Modes of Operation > Ad-hoc Mode Connection

Wireless Device Servers Ad-hoc Mode Connection

Benefits of using Wireless Device Servers from "Wireless Device Solutions":


There are three core benefits to integrating a Wireless Device Server into an automation or control system.

(1) First, Wireless can reduce cabling costs. This is especially relevant in hard-to-cable or hazardous areas, listed buildings or where temporary installations (concerts/conferences, etc.) are required.

(2) Secondly Wireless means increased mobility. Forklift trucks, instrument trolleys and cranes are just a few of the devices that need freedom of movement and where Wireless may save on the cost of armoured cabling systems.

(3) Lastly, wireless technology delivers IP routing of data. The serial data is routed using IP addressing which means the data can be forwarded using a wired or wireless LAN,WAN or even the Internet.

Apart from the tangible savings, there is also an element of prestige for anyone using leading-edge technology. Both system integrator and end-user can benefit from marketing opportunities generated by use of new wireless applications.
