What’s Wi-Fi HaLow?
 

A Wi-Fi standard IEEE 802.11ah also known as Wi-Fi HaLow. It complements traditional Wi-Fi to expand WLAN and Ethernet network with its long-range and secure Wi-Fi connection to support long-range applications and large-scale IoT networks.
 

EtherWAN’s industrial Wi-Fi HaLow solutions – EDGE 3 series is an industrial-grade long-range wireless data transmission device for IIoT deployments. Based on IEEE 802.11ah technology, it provides miles level coverage with strong signal penetration, enabling reliable data transmission in large-scale environments. Designed for 4 core value points – effortless deployment, ultra-stable transmission, robust security, and outstanding cost efficiency. It dramatically reduce on-site installation time and labor costs.
 

Reduced Complexity and Rapid Deployment, this is the easy way for your existing or a new IoT field deployment.
 

**Wireless transmission performance will be different at each different environment. Please do a suit survey before you deploy the device.
