Product Description

Our PlantLinc family of m0dems are designed to address your specific needs for short-range in-plant medium-range installations. Responding directly to customer demands, we’ve developed the “PLR” modems that combine the robust FHSS(Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) data transfer method, akin to our premium SRM family, but at a more competitive short-range price point.

Key Features of the PlantLinc “PLR” Modems:

  • Powerful Performance: Superior reliability & performance for wireless industrial data communication maintaining Data-Linc’s well-earned reputation.
  • Reliable and Robust: PLR6330 Ethernet Radio Modem allows customers to implement proprietary wireless networks in challenging environments with high RFI/EMI and crowded wireless bands. It’s the perfect solution for establishing a reliable proprietary wireless network. with confidence in unsurpassed data communication integrity.
  • Easy Configuration: The PLR6330 is remarkably versatile, with software configurability. Our proprietary SetLincTM software, included with the modems, simplifies setup and configuration. You can configure via 10/100 Auto-MDIX Ethernet ports, a DB9 serial port, or even through web configuration for remote sites.
  • Intuitive Status Monitoring: LED status lights on the front panel provide instant access to crucial information, ensuring convenience and ease of diagnostics.
  • Flexible Network Topologies: Like all members of the PLR Family, the PLR6330 supports both point-to-point and point-to-multipoint network setups. With the SetLincTM software, each modem can be configured for various roles such as Master, Remote, Repeater, and Remote/Repeater.
  • Security and Coverage: Data security is paramount. The PLR6330 incorporates AES-256 encryption, ensuring your data remains protected. Moreover, it offers an impressive data transfer range of up to two miles (3.2 km) with line-of-sight, which can be extended with Repeaters and high-gain antennas.
  • Versatility in Design: These modems are ideal for remote sites with options for web configuration. Compatible with long-range radios for hybrid SRM/PLR applications, offering maximum flexibility in network design.

*Please note: The extended range is achievable under optimal conditions, including clear line-of-sight, integration of Repeaters, and utilization of high-gain antennas.
