Our AWK 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6 solutions offer speeds of up to 1.775 Gbps and 80 MHz channels to empower demanding IIoT applications.
Wi-Fi 6 significantly improves wireless performance with MU-MIMO (multi-user multiple input, multiple output) and OFDMA (orthogonal frequency-division multiple access). MU-MIMO increases data throughput for multiple users simultaneously, supporting up to eight spatial streams for both uploads and downloads. Meanwhile, OFDMA maximizes spectrum efficiency for high-speed, low-latency communication in congested areas. This allows, for example, more AMRs to operate via a single warehouse access point without sacrificing signal quality or bandwidth. With these performance-boosting technologies, industrial Wi-Fi 6 provides a robust foundation for the real-time data-intensive applications of today's industrial automation environment.
Moxa’s AWK Wi-Fi 6 Series is engineered to deliver exceptional wireless performance in mission-critical industrial environments. At the heart of its reliability is Turbo Roaming, a proprietary technology that enables ultra-fast handovers between access points. This ensures uninterrupted connectivity for mobile equipment, such as automated guided vehicles (AGVs), cranes, or trains, even when operating at high speeds or across large facilities with complex network topologies.
The AWK WiFi-6 Series is also built to endure the harshest conditions. Its ruggedized hardware is resistant to electromagnetic interference, making it ideal for deployment near heavy machinery or in areas with high electrical noise. Additionally, the devices are rated for extreme temperature ranges from -40°C to 75°C, allowing them to function reliably in both freezing outdoor installations and hot industrial zones.
Our security-hardened AWK Wi-Fi 6 Series integrates a range of security features that reference IEC 62443-4-2 Security Level 2* to protect critical OT systems from cyberthreats and ensure reliable operations. Support for the latest WPA3 data encryption and network address translation (NAT) helps you meet the compliance requirements of secure network design and simplify outbound connections.
*AWK-1161/1165/3262A/4262A Series devices are embedded with security features that meet IEC 62443-4-2 Security Level 2 functional requirements. Contact us for more details.
The compact design of Moxa’s AWK Series allows for easy installation into machines. Our entry-level Wi-Fi 6 Series, the AWK-1160 Series, is among the smallest standalone industrial Wi-Fi 6 AP/Clients on the market, designed to fit in confined machine cabinets. Its five-port models, the AWK-1165A and AWK-1165C Series, provide 5 embedded switch ports to simplify machine integration and reduce installation footprint.
Moxa’s AeroMesh technology enables advanced AWK Wi-Fi 6 Series to create resilient, intelligent Wi-Fi networks made up of self-forming and self-healing mesh connections.
The MXview One Wireless add-on boosts management efficiency by visualizing dynamic wireless connections and link changes in real-time for more efficient monitoring and troubleshooting.
When deploying global projects, regional RF compliance is critical. The AWK Series universal (UN) models feature configurable country or region code to make sure your wireless networks comply with regional requirements.
Unleash the Power of Wi-Fi 6 in Your Industrial Applications
