ABB TropOS 6430-T Broadband Wireless Mesh Router with Integrated TeleOS Unlicensed 900 MHz PTMP/PTP Access Point

Part Number: TropOS 6430-T

The TropOS 6430-T combines a TropOS broadband mesh router with a TeleOS narrowband unlicensed 900 MHz point-to-multipoint (PTMP) or point-to-point (PTP) access point into a single enclosure. It fully participates as mesh router, with 2x2 MIMO support in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, as part of a TropOS high-performance broadband mesh network. Concurrently, the TeleOS narrowband PTP/PTMP radio enables connectivity of remote endpoints at low to medium speeds to the TropOS network. Integration of a TropOS mesh router and a TeleOS PTP/PTMP access point into one device simplifies installation and management while increasing system reliability. The integrated GPS improves asset tracking.

The TropOS 6430-T enables utilities, oil and gas companies and other industrial concerns to securely deploy field automation communication. It offers a multi-layer, multi-application security model that provides defense-in-depth. Its advanced set of standards-based security features for field area networks including a built-in firewall and IPsec VPN in every unit. The TropOS 6430-T enables traffic from different applications and user groups to be segregated on separate virtual local area networks (VLANs), each with its own address space, security policies and Quality of Service (QoS) policies. In addition, the product’s operating software provides the technical controls required to achieve NERC CIP v5 compliance.
