Product Description

WDS Transceiver Series Overview

The WDS Transceiver Series is a price/performance leader in licensed radios in the 108-174MHz, 220-222MHz, 330-512MHz, and 800-960MHz frequency ranges. They provide increased throughput and longer-range for multiple address systems. Transparent and direct asynchronous communication offers real-time communication. No extra software or programming is needed to implement communications using standard asynchronous protocols. A general purpose (unconditioned) digital output is available.

The Transceiver Series is field configurable as a master station or remote radio. They can operate as a half-duplex or simplex radio. They support all splits in duplex frequencies. When operating as a master station, full network diagnostics are available. Simplex mode permits peer-to-peer radio communications. This product is available for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C & D hazardous locations.
