SDX-BW5 Wireless Ethernet Broadband System

Overview

The SDX-BW5 Wireless Ethernet Broadband Transmission System delivers industrial-grade full-duplex transparent channel connectivity over significant distances. Combining OFDM/TDMA modulation with MIMO multiple-input multiple-output antenna technology, it achieves non-line-of-sight (NLOS) transmission of 500-1500 meters and high-to-low or air-to-ground line-of-sight (LOS) distances of 10-18 kilometers. The system is fully IP-based, functioning as a pure hardware connection that works plug-and-play out of the box.

What sets the SDX-BW5 apart is its thoughtful integration of an LCD panel for on-device configuration and an extended WiFi hotspot for convenient wireless access. With a maximum transmit power of 5W and channel throughput supporting up to 30Mbps, it bridges the gap between performance and ease of deployment in demanding environments.

Key Features

• Full-duplex IP bridge over Ethernet with up to 30Mbps throughput, point-to-point, point-to-multipoint (up to 16 nodes), and relay networking modes
• Dual-antenna 1T2R architecture for improved signal diversity and link reliability
• Configurable frequency bands at 800MHz (default), 1.4GHz, or 2.4GHz, with bandwidth selectable from 1.4 to 20MHz via the integrated LCD
• AES256 encryption settable directly from the LCD panel for field-deployed security
• Industrial M12 Ethernet connector on the TX end for ruggedized operation, standard RJ45 on the RX end
• WiFi hotspot compliant with IEEE 802.3 at 300Mbps for local wireless access to the system
• Low 50ms latency suitable for real-time control applications
• Wide input voltage range DC 12-16V on transmit side with 17W power consumption

Technical Highlights

The SDX-BW5's core strength lies in its combination of OFDM/TDMA framing and MIMO spatial multiplexing. OFDM divides the available spectrum into orthogonal subcarriers, providing robust resistance to multipath interference in built-up or indoor environments. TDMA efficiently allocates time slots for multiple endpoints, enabling coordinated point-to-multipoint and relay topologies on a single frequency channel. MIMO 1T2R enhances receive diversity, improving link margin and extending usable range without increasing transmit power. The system supports adaptive modulation from BPSK through 64QAM, automatically selecting the densest constellation the link can sustain.

Applications

The SDX-BW5 excels in industrial automation, robotics communication, and emergency command scenarios where medium-to-long-distance broadband links are needed without cabling. It is deployed for connecting remote PLCs, video surveillance backhaul, AGV control links, and temporary communication infrastructure at disaster sites. The relay networking mode makes it ideal for covering extended corridors such as tunnels, pipelines, or perimeter security zones where a single point-to-point link cannot reach.

Why Choose This System

The SDX-BW5 delivers carrier-grade Ethernet bridging in an industrial form factor without requiring specialized RF expertise to deploy. Its LCD-based configuration removes the need for a laptop in the field, while the AES256 encryption and MIMO-enhanced range ensure your data link stays secure and reliable. For teams that need a tough, no-compromise wireless Ethernet backbone that works straight out of the case, this is the system.
