ACKSYS RuggedAir1000 – high-performance industrial WiFi 5 in a rugged IP66 design

ACKSYS RuggedAir1000 is a high-performance multifunctional industrial WiFi device designed for transportation, outdoor installations, moving machines and demanding industrial environments. It can operate as a WiFi Access Point, client, repeater or router.

RuggedAir1000 uses WiFi 5 / IEEE 802.11ac with MIMO 3T3R and achieves wireless data rates of up to 1.3 Gbit/s. Its rugged IP66 design, M12 connectors, three external antennas and −40 to +70 °C operating temperature range allow installation directly on vehicles and machines.

WiFi 5 up to 1.3 Gbit/s

One IEEE 802.11ac radio with MIMO 3T3R provides wireless data rates of up to 1.3 Gbit/s, making RuggedAir1000 suitable for applications requiring higher wireless throughput.

IP66 and −40 to +70 °C

Weather-resistant design, industrial M12 connectors and high shock and vibration resistance allow installation outdoors, on vehicles and directly on machines.

2× Gigabit Ethernet M12

Two 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet ports use rugged M12 X-coded connectors. Multiple Ethernet devices can therefore be connected directly on the machine or vehicle.

Designed for transportation and rail

RuggedAir1000 meets requirements for transportation applications, including EN 50155, shock and vibration resistance according to EN 61373 and fire protection requirements according to EN 45545-2.

Where is RuggedAir1000 used?

RuggedAir1000 is suitable wherever high-speed WiFi communication and high mechanical and environmental resistance are required at the same time.

WiFi 802.11ac with MIMO 3T3R

RuggedAir1000 features one IEEE 802.11ac WiFi radio with MIMO 3T3R. Depending on the configuration, it operates in the 2.4 or 5 GHz band. Under 802.11ac, it achieves wireless data rates of up to 1.3 Gbit/s.

Three separate radio chains and three external antennas improve throughput and WiFi connection quality. ANI (Adaptive Noise Immunity) technology helps increase resistance to radio interference.

2× Gigabit Ethernet via M12 X-coded

RuggedAir1000 is equipped with two 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet ports with industrial M12 X-coded connectors. They provide rugged wired connectivity for vehicles, outdoor installations and machines exposed to vibration.

Network functions include bridging, repeater, VLAN, STP/RSTP, DHCP server and client, DNS relay, multicast, VRRP, static routing and NAT routing.

IP66 for transportation and industry

Rugged WiFi for applications where a standard Access Point is not enough.

RuggedAir1000 is designed for demanding industrial and transportation applications. It withstands shock and vibration according to EN 61373 CAT 1 Class B and operates over a temperature range from −40 to +70 °C.

Redundant 12–36 VDC power supply or PoE

RuggedAir1000 offers isolated redundant 12–36 VDC power supply with a nominal voltage of 24 VDC according to EN 50155. Power is connected through an industrial 4-pin M12 A-coded connector.

Alternatively, the device can be powered via PoE IEEE 802.3af, simplifying cabling in some installations.

Alarm output and external input

RuggedAir1000 also features a waterproof 3-pin M8 connector with a configurable solid-state alarm output and an input for controlling an external device.

Important operating states can therefore be transferred directly to another control or monitoring system.

Fast device replacement using C-Key

RuggedAir1000 uses ACKSYS C-Key to store and restore the configuration. When replacing the device, the C-Key can be inserted into the new RuggedAir1000, significantly reducing the time required to restore the original settings.

Industrial WiFi security

RuggedAir1000 runs the ACKSYS WaveOS operating system and supports security functions for industrial and transportation WiFi networks. The current manufacturer firmware also includes modifications to meet EN 18031 cybersecurity requirements.

WaveOS & WaveManager

RuggedAir1000 uses the ACKSYS WaveOS operating system. The device can be configured and diagnosed via web interface, HTTPS or SNMP.

For larger installations, ACKSYS WaveManager can be used for central configuration, monitoring and management of multiple WiFi devices. This is useful for vehicle fleets, depots, industrial sites and large production facilities.

Note on Fast Roaming and Mesh: the manufacturer lists Fast Roaming with handover below 30 ms and Mesh on the product page, but marks these functions with an asterisk. Availability should therefore be verified for the specific firmware version and intended application.
