FAQ

What does the ingress-protection rating cover?: The rating in the specifications above applies to the sealed unit as delivered. Confirm the rating of the exact model you order before designing around it.
Can it operate in salt-fog or marine environments?: Sealed models are built for wet and dusty environments. For prolonged marine exposure, confirm the operating envelope with us first.
What is the operating temperature range?: It is listed in the specifications above. Pair it with your platform's thermal budget — radio modules heat up at full transmit power.
Does sealing affect the connectors?: Sealed units use sealed or panel-mount connectors; the interface list above shows what each model exposes.
How do I get a quote?: Start an RFQ with this model pre-filled — we respond with pricing, lead time and documentation for the configuration you need.
