Module description
The 3e-523 and 3e-523-F1 WLAN products provide wired connections for Ethernet and Serial devices. This connection can be over an Ethernet 10/100 baseT RJ-45 and/or via RS-232/422/485 interface. The 3e-523 and 3e-523-F1 wireless connection can be configured to use IEEE 802.11a/b/g with Layer 2 AES or TDES encryption. The wireless connectivity is a wireless bridging function to, for example, another 523, a 3e-525A-3 Wireless Access Point, or similar device. The 3e-523 and 3e-523-F1 are ideal for connecting RFID readers, sensors, and other data devices (printers, terminals, etc.) into a secur
