Cisco Aironet 1552WU Access Point - High-performance, Designed for hazardous outdoor environments - Integrated Emerson Smart WirelessHART gateway for wireless sensor networks - Six external Type N connectors for Wi-Fi antennas: three for 2.4 GHz and three for 5 GHz (sold separately) (AIR-CAP1552WU-B-K9)
The Cisco Aironet 1552WU Outdoor Access Point is ideal for mining, oil and gas, manufacturing, and process control applications. The 1552WU merges the ruggedized outdoor 802.11n access point with an integrated WirelessHART gateway to provide a seamless solution for wireless sensor networks. The WirelessHART radio has been designed specifically for mission-critical wireless connectivity to industrial sensor equipment. With a WirelessHART radio integrated into an 802.11n-based access point, a single solution addresses the growing need for wireless mobility while also providing mission-critical connectivity for industrial sensing and monitoring equipment, such as gauges for water treatment plants, sensors for chemical plants, and vibration monitoring solutions for oil rigs.
By eliminating the extra power and network connections, which can be expensive to deploy and maintain in hazardous locations, the 1552WU saves costs by reducing deployment times while offering a flexible, highly secure, and scalable mesh network for high-performance wireless coverage for both Wi-Fi clients and WirelessHART field instruments across large facilities. With all these benefits, the Cisco Aironet 1552WU Outdoor Access Point can improve overall plant reliability, safety, and profitability.
The Cisco Aironet 1552WU Outdoor Access Point provides multiple device connectivity and network access options to support use cases such as real-time seamless mobility, distributed control system connectivity, video surveillance, 3G and 4G cellular data offload, and public and private Wi-Fi access.
The access point contains a dual Wi-Fi radio system with radios that are compliant with IEEE 802.11a/n (5-GHz) and 802.11b/g/n (2.4-GHz) standards, respectively. The 1552WU has six external Wi-Fi antenna connections for three 2.4 GHz and three 5 GHz antennas, providing flexibility to select differing antenna gain patterns for each band. It has 5 GHz mesh Wi-Fi, Ethernet backhaul options. There is one antenna connector for a WirelessHART antenna. This access point also has a PoE-out port and can power a video surveillance camera. The Cisco Aironet 1552WU Outdoor Access Point is Class 1, Div 2/Zone 2 hazardous location-certified. Lightning arrestors for surge protection are also supported.
