Series Ethernet Adapters support wireless connectivity to it. Internal bridging
features in the RangeLAN2 Ethernet Adapters automatically forward packets as
required with no modification to your applications. RangeLAN2 Ethernet Adapters
make driver and hardware installation a thing of the past.
RangeLAN2 7920/7921 Ethernet Adapters provide wireless connectivity
solutions to PCs, Macintosh and UNIX computers, printers, medical,
manufacturing, industrial, transportation and educational equipment with
built-in Ethernet interfaces. With the Ethernet adapter, manufacturing
equipment becomes truly portable. In the industrial environment, equipment like
PLCs and sensors communicate without wires over
ranges of several miles. Meeting retail’s seasonal requirements, terminals,
scanners, scales and printers are easily moved when communicating through an
Ethernet adapter. Medical equipment like monitors and analyzers can be portable
to better serve patients and staff. In the transportation industry, Ethernet
adapters incorporate a new level of intelligence in vehicles like trucks, buses
and heavy equipment through mobile computing.
