SATELLAR
![]() |
SATELLAR is a new generation digital radio modem system that consists of several different units:
- Central unit (CU)
- Radio unit (RU)
- Expansion units (XU)
SATELLAR enables the building of an independent, reliable, real-time radio data communication system that meets the specific needs of the customer.
Typically, a central unit together with a radio unit are used in a network as a master station or in locations where an Ethernet connection is needed. For radio router stations, the central unit is not necessarily required. In these cases, the radio unit can be used alone. This is possible because of the modular structure of the product.
SATELLAR units are available as separate entities or as combined product packages:
- the SATELLAR-2DS includes a radio unit and a central unit, which enables full TCP/IP connectivity.
- the SATELLAR-2DSd provides the same functionality as the SATELLAR-2DS, but it is equipped with a colour display and a keypad.
- the SATELLAR-1DS is a radio unit that can be used in stations where a standard RS-connection is sufficient.
