PremierWave™ EN delivers a new
dimension of WiFi networking with the highest levels of security to
virtually any electronic product. It provides affordable
connectivity in a compact form factor, enabling OEMs to add WiFi or
wired Ethernet networking to their products on a single PCB
design.
With a choice of flexible,
media-independent modules ranging from Ethernet, WiFi and
ultra-secure WiFi, the PremierWave EN takes the complexity out of
RF design and networking. OEMs can focus on their core competencies
while minimizing engineering risk, shortening development time and
reducing development cost.
WiFi Network Processor Module
PremierWave EN has a dedicated
32-bit processor module that manages wireless connectivity and web
services. With its high performance, ample memory and Linux OS,
PremierWave EN can be designed as the primary host processor, for
demanding applications.
Bulletproof Security
With an unmatched portfolio of
security technologies, PremierWave EN goes far beyond compliance
with the popular 802.11i, WPA and WPA2 wireless security
specifications. It ensures data integrity and privacy for highly
sensitive requirements, such as medical or financial
applications.
- IEEE 802.11i-compliant radio with AES-CCMP and TKIP
encryption
- Complete suite of 802.1x Enterprise Authentication Protocols
(EAP)
including EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, PEAP, EAP-Fast and LEAP
- End-to-end SSL TLS and SSH tunneling
- End-to-end AES encrypted tunneling
Highly Reliability WiFi for Better Mobility
With exclusive SmartRoam
technology, PremierWave EN continuously tracks the signal strength
of access points (AP) within range. If necessary,
pre-authentication and caching enables smooth and automatic
transition to an access point with a stronger signal. This enhances
mobility within a building, warehouse or across a campus network
with less time spent re-authenticating due to a lost connection or
re-associating to a stronger signal.
Scan, Gather and Report Radio Parameters
With an unmatched portfolio of
security technologies, PremierWave EN PremierWave EN scans current
AP and Received Signal Strength radio parameters, as well as
authentication and negotiated encryption types for the current
association, and displays them on a web page. This enables remote
technicians to diagnose problems as they occur and troubleshoot
over any IP network without a service call, reducing support costs
and unnecessary visits.
Linux and Web Server Technologies
Featuring Linux, PremierWave's
integrated CGI-capable web server transforms a standalone device
into a networked product that can be managed remotely via a
standard web browser.
CGI capability enables users to
remotely monitor and collect information from the device in
real-time and send the information to dynamic web pages. AJAX
technology ensures smooth browsing of dynamic content served from
the edge device. Additionally, PremierWave EN supports open
standards such as "Cisco-like" CLI, XML and serial and Telnet
management options.
Flexible & Intelligent Design
Designed with an on-board antenna
and option for external antennas and diversity, it provides the
flexibility to locate the antenna and connector based on design
requirements. It also includes a user-controlled, intelligent power
management option to shut down the radio during periods of
inactivity, minimizing current consumption.
| Comprehensive Development
Support |

To provide further assistance in
reducing design and implementation timescales, a comprehensive
evaluation kit is offered that includes an OEM integrator kit and
technical support from a team of experienced engineers.
The OEM integrator kit
includes documentation and accessories required to start
integrating instantly. A CD is also included
containing the Lantronix Device Installer configuration
utility and Redirector (Virtual Com Port software) to allow
engineers to migrate any existing serial design in no time at
all.
