About Wireless RS485

 
 
Wireless RS485 communication is designed explictly to replace wires, cables, condiut and the associated costs of installing them.  Wireless RS485 is perfect for applications such as:
 
  • New construction
  • Adding New Buildings
  • Adding New Gates
  • Communicating with an Annex
  • Retrofitting existing structures with Security
  • Retrofitting existing structures with Access Control
 
Facility Designers/Planners should consider using this technology wherever wiring is required for data communications, but adding conduit and/or wire is cost prohibitive or othereise not desired.  Since power is required for both the access control keypads or Security Alarm devices as well as the RS485 Wireless transceiver, the destination point for the wireless "wire" must have A/C available.  In most applications where multiple remote points (locations on the property) are required, Global supplies a special Omni-directional Antenna and two or more Yagi Antennas.  In this way, the head end, where theController is located, uses the Omni-directional antenna, while the remotes each use a Yagi Antenna.
