reliability with maximum flexibility,
delivering the most versatile solution
in the market today
•
Patented Clear Space® Technology and
integrated ESD protection delivers highest
power and speed for industrial applications
The new family of Hirschmann™ OpenBAT
hardware is the latest generation of WLAN
devices, representing a new evolutionary
stage in WLAN technology, increasing WLAN
network speed by up to 50% compared to
the BAT300 devices. Designed, developed
and patented by Hirschmann™, the OpenBAT
platform allows you to select the device
you need from a nearly unlimited range of
interfaces, power supplies, housing types and
specific certifications. The platform offers
additional flexibility by allowing you to
design a wireless network by either using
the OpenBAT devices as standalone Access
Point or managing the network centrally
by the BAT-Controller.
The new BAT generation delivers up to 30%
cost savings and reduces the installation
complexity and time as formerly external
accessories, including ESD protection, power
supply and fiber ports are now directly
integrated into the OpenBAT hardware.
Furthermore, the ESD discharge protection
guarantees a longer lifetime of radios,
delivering further cost savings.

This product family was designed with maximum flexibility in mind. It is suitable for applications
in a range of markets, especially in public transport, discrete automation, process automation,
transportation, power transmission and distribution, mining and renewable energy generation.
The new “Open” platform makes it possible to realize wireless solutions in areas where this was
not possible until now and allows you to choose the right product variant for the best solution,
so you only pay for what you really need. These devices have enhanced shock and vibration
stability, making them extremely suitable for use in harsh and demanding industrial environments.
These include:
•
Power Transmission and Distribution, where thanks to remote service access application:
operators can access internal networks from outside and as a result reduce the risk of entering
areas with high tensions.
•
Mining: Here superior vibration resistance allows the use of wireless links for equipment
on vehicles, so intelligent devices can be used for the optimization of processes and reduced
risk of accidents.
