Advantages of Moxa AWK-3262A Series:

  • Wi-Fi 6 OFDMA & Spatial Reuse – Handles many simultaneous clients with less interference which is an ideal for dense, data-heavy floor environments. 
  • AeroMesh self-forming network – Automatically builds and heals mesh paths with no manual reconfiguration needed when a node goes down. 
  • Sub-150 ms Turbo Roaming – Seamless AP handoff keeps mobile assets and AGVs connected without dropped session 
  • Built-in band-pass filters – Reduces out-of-band RF noise at the hardware level with no additional filter accessories needed. 
  • Wide temperature range (-T models) – Operates reliably from -40 to 75°C with the purpose-built for harsh industrial sites. 
  • ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) & surge isolation – Separate antenna and power port isolation protects against voltage spikes and electrostatic discharge. 
  • WPA3 encryption + EN 18031-1 – Latest wireless security standard combined with EU cybersecurity compliance out of the box. 
  • CC-Link IE TSN (Time Sensitive Network) certified – Ready to integrate directly into time-sensitive factory automation networks. 

Who is it suitable for?

Automated Factories High-density robotic cells and AGV corridors where stable, low-latency Wi-Fi is critical.
Distribution warehouses Large open floor spaces with moving forklifts and handheld scanners requiring seamless roaming.
Food & beverage plants Environments with temperature swings and RF-noisy machinery that demand rugged, filtered hardware.
Harsh indoor industrial sites Locations where cable runs are impractical, costly, or structurally restricted.
