Overview
The iWAP101 Zone 1 Universal Access Point Enclosure is designed to deploy wireless networks in hazardous areas. The concept allows installation of equipment from leading WLAN vendors such as Aeroscout, Meru, Symbol, Cisco, Firetide and many
others. Each type of Access Point or RF transmitting device is rigorously checked and tested by Extronics and or Notified Body
to ensure conformity to the ATEX standards and approvals. This means that you can effectively use the vendor of your choice
when you want to extend your WLAN to your hazardous areas, but equipment not already on the list overleaf needs assessment to determine if it is suitable. The Extronics iWAP101 requires one or two high quality Ex e increased safety antennas. To
be used with one or two Ex e antennas (not included) e.g Extronics iANT100 series for optimum coverage on Chemical Plants, Oil
Refineries or Oil & Gas Platforms. Optional features include surge arrestors for lightening suppression in outdoor installations
and fibre optic inputs for the Ethernet.
