9.1.2 Repeaters
The NR1210 is an ISA 100.11a repeater which enables the expansion of an ISA100.11a wireless
network by providing a routing role. As a routing device, a repeater is able to extend the range of an
ISA100.11a compliant wireless network, provide routing redundancy or provide a routing option to a
sensor that has poor signal strength or quality or combination of both. Consider the use of this cell
powered repeater when a line powered IS100.11a access point or repeater is not practical.
Refer to the product data sheet for repeater ordering information.
Note!
VP Series 2000 repeaters should be used to extend a wireless sensor field or to provide
communication paths for devices in areas where the wireless network provides inadequate
coverage.
VP Series 2000 repeaters should not be used to extend the initial reach of a wireless network
router or to route a large number of devices through itself.
Warning!
VP Series 2000 repeaters are intended for monitoring purposes only and should not be used
in control or safety systems.
