Data-Linc Group’s wireless, license-free SRM6130 Serial Modem offers superior reliability, versatility and performance for wireless serial transmission. It offers an unsurpassed rated range of up to 15 miles (24 km) with line-of-sight and omni directional antennas, farther with Repeaters and/ or high gain antennas. The SRM6130 is the next generation of the proven SRM6100 serial modem, and is fully backward compatible.

The SRM6130 employs Smart Spectrum^TM frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology in the 2.4-2.4835 GHz frequency band for secure, robust communication. Data-Linc Group’s FHSS technology, coupled with 32-bit CRC error detection and AES Encryption enables the SRM6130 to reliably and securely deliver critical information.

RF site surveys are usually unnecessary and an FCC site license is not required. The SRM6130 wireless technology eliminates the need for hard wire or fiber cable, which is often expensive and difficult to install.

The SRM6130 supports a number of configurations, including point-to-point , point- to-multipoint as well as multiple Repeaters if required. Multipoint operation permits an unlimited number of Remotes. The SRM6130 can also function as a Repeater/Remote to extend range or communicate around obstructions. Back- to-back radio modems are not required for Repeater function.

Industrial Applications

The SRM6130 Radio Modem is ideal for industrial automation systems with:

• PLCs located on moving platforms, overhead cranes and turntables or other revolving equipment

• Remote PLC programming

• SCADA systems, such as water/wastewater, utilities and oil/gas systems

• Underground or off-shore communications

• High RFI environments (e.g., steel, manufacturing)

• Industrial automation machine control on plant floors

Data-Linc Group's SRM6130 utilizes Smart Spectrum technology— ideal for critical applications that demand reliable and secure communications. See also Smart Spectrum FAQ.
