compact IWLAN transceivers

The ProfiDAT

®

compact

 transceivers (access points or clients) send and receive data via MAC-based data communication in accordance with the IEEE 802�11 standard�  

Access points are installed stationary near the feed-in units� They function as an interface between a stationary Ethernet network and the wireless data transmission 
through the ProfiDAT

®

compact

 profile� Moreover, they coordinate the communication to and between clients (transceivers installed on the mobile vehicles)�  

This also means a ProfiDAT

®

compact

 system requires at least two transceivers; one access point and one client for the data communication�

An access point can communicate with several clients, while clients can only communicate with one access point within a defined cycle time� Nonetheless clients can 
switch from one access point to another, each feeding data into one ProfiDAT

®

compact

 rail segment, by following a defined handover process, by using the protocol iPCF 

(industrial Point Coordination Function)� With this feature it is possible to achieve unlimited system lengths with ProfiDAT

®

compact

� Additionally, through the prioritization of 

PROFINET (PROFIsafe) data, real-time data communication at highest security and reliability can be guaranteed�
All transceivers are configured to customer-specific applications and layouts, as well as for the use together with ProfiDAT

®

compact

� Transceivers not configured by 

Conductix-Wampfler will not work in combination with ProfiDAT

®

compact

� Furthermore, configured transceivers are meant for the use within a defined system and seg-

ment only�
For the convenience of our customers and in case a transceiver needs to be replaced, all ProfiDAT

®

compact

 transceivers are equipped with a so called C-Plug or Key-Plug 

on which the unique configuration is stored� These plugs can be inserted into a compatible replacement device and transfer the configuration automatically to the new 
device� In case a plug is lost or damaged, Conductix-Wampfler can deliver a new transceiver correctly configured so long as the serial number of the original device is 
known� Delivered transceivers may only be used in combination with the ProfiDAT
