Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum
Range to 20 Miles
900 MHz (2.4 Ghz available)
Asynchronous 1.2 to 57.6 Kbps full duplex, 115.2 Kbps half duplex
The DCB-115 spread spectrum transceivers provide reliable long
range data communications. Using frequency hopping spread technology,
Free Wave transceivers are capable of uncompressed data rates
of 115.2 Kbps over distances of 20 miles or more. As well as
providing long range reliable data links, Free Wave transceivers
set up quickly and incur no ongoing fees, unlike cellular and
land line communications. Monthly telephone company costs are
eliminated.
The DCB-115 transceivers operate point to point or point to multipoint,
selectable using any async terminal program. Repeaters may be
used to extend the range by programming the DCB-115 to operate
as a store and forward unit. With up to two repeaters in a link
and external antennas, links of 60 miles and beyond are possible.
Transceivers are assigned unique electronic serial numbers at
the factory, providing control of who does and who does not have
access to the data. An optional mode allows the transceiver to
respond to a set of AT commands. Applications for the DCB series
include:
Emergency back up links
Campus links for schools, colleges, manufacturing plants,
offices
Home to office links
Computer to computer, terminal or multiplexer links
