7.1 Router nodes (general)
WaveNet router nodes connect two different network segments which use either the
same transmission medium (e.g. RS485-RS485) or different transmission media (e.g.
RS485 cable/radio 868 MHz, Ethernet/RS485 or radio 868 MHz, WLAN/RS485 or
radio 868MHz).
The WaveNet router node also filters the data flows from the segments so that the
only data forwarded to the segment downstream of the WaveNet router node is the
data to be processed in this same segment. All other data is blocked from the
downstream segment by the WaveNet router node.
At present, WaveNet router nodes can connect the following transmission interfaces
between segments: RS485 CAT 5 cable, Ethernet TCP/IP, USB, RS232 cable, radio
868 MHz, WLAN.
7.2 Router nodes (special variants)
WaveNet central nodes are router nodes that can interconnect
- between PC (RS232 interface) and radio 868 MHz or
- between PC (RS232 interface) and CAT 5 cabling (RS485) or
- between PC (USB interface) and radio 868 MHz or
- between PC (USB interface) and CAT 5 cabling (RS485).
WaveNet router nodes interconnect
- between Ethernet (TCP/IP) and radio 868 MHz or
- between Ethernet (TCP/IP) and CAT 5 cabling (RS485) or
- between WLAN and radio 868 MHz or
- between WLAN and CAT 5 cabling (RS485)
