Product Overview

The ProSoft RLX2-IHNF-A is an industrial frequency hopping radio designed for reliable wireless Ethernet communication in demanding environments. Operating in the 902-928 MHz ISM band, it delivers robust, license-free connectivity for SCADA, remote monitoring, and mobile equipment networking. The radio supports transparent Ethernet bridging, enabling seamless integration with PLCs, RTUs, IP cameras, and other Ethernet-enabled devices.

Engineered for harsh industrial conditions, the RLX2-IHNF-A features a rugged metal enclosure, wide operating temperature range, and advanced frequency hopping spread spectrum technology to resist interference. It is ideal for applications where wired infrastructure is impractical or too costly, offering long-range communication up to 5 kilometers with appropriate antennas.
