Description

Thanks to its innovative hole-mounted design, the Bolt can be installed seamlessly on cabinets and equipment, blending in as an integrated part of the installation. The device can be powered via Power over Ethernet or separate power terminals.

The Anybus Wireless Bolt II is engineered to withstand even the most demanding operating conditions, with an extremely robust IP66-rated enclosure and a wide temperature range of -25°C to 65°C, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

In summary, the Anybus Wireless Bolt II provides reliable wireless communication in tough industrial environments, allowing companies to remove cables and achieve a more flexible and adaptable installation.

Wireless industrial communication

  • Utilizes Wi-Fi 5 technology (802.11ac) to enable faster and more efficient data transfer by making better use of the 5GHz frequency band.
  • Integrated dual-band MIMO antennas offer excellent coverage. 
  • WDS support for the transparent extension of Ethernet-based fieldbus networks.

 

Extremely robust design

  • Designed for harsh industrial environments, reducing the need for frequent replacements and maintenance.
  • Wide temperature range (-25°C to 65°C) and resistance to exposure to dust and water, making it suitable for use in challenging environments.

 

Easy installation

  • Intuitive user interface allows for quick and easy setup.
  • M50 through-hole allows mounting on any flat surface without exposing any wires.
  • Use a single cable for both power and communication with PoE (Power over Ethernet).
  • Easily integrated into existing systems, saving time and effort compared to installing new cabling or infrastructure.

 

Security:

  • Secure configuration through HTTPS
  • Latest generation WPA3 Wi-Fi encryption.

 

Roaming 

The Anybus Wireless Bolt II can be attached to roaming machines such as AGVs, enabling the machine to connect to various access points throughout the facility. It exchanges information on the best path to ensure the machine reaches its destination efficiently and safely.
