| Nexis
- Bringing the Wireless Advantage to Industry |
| |
Nexis, designed for the industrial mining environment, is a powerful and secure wireless network with mesh capabilities, based on open standard technology.
Nexis is not reliant on a central server, allowing greater flexibility for coverage of large or complex geographical areas as typically experienced in mine sites and industrial plants.

Mesh Network
|
Mesh networks allow for wireless Ethernet (broadband) coverage of
large or complex geographical areas as typically experienced in modern mine
sites and industrial plants.
A Nexis mesh network operates by forming dynamic associations between all other neighbouring NexisTM devices. Each device operates as a router and forwards traffic to the neighbour that is best positioned to reach the final destination. This type of mesh network is autonomous, self-configuring and self-healing for maximum availability and reliability in the most demanding environments.

| Nexis Benefits
|
For industrial sites, Nexis solves the problem of transferring large amounts of information and data site-wide and in real time.
High capacity wireless broadband, connecting applications in the field to the office.
|
|
Greater Flexibility with no central server
|
| Nexis is not reliant on a central server, allowing greater flexibility for coverage of large or complex geographical areas as typically experienced in mine sites and industrial plants.
Continuous coverage in difficult areas beyond the range of standard
repeaters such as down in the pit or against a high wall.
|
No commitment to a proprietary standard
|
Nexis is based upon open standards that are not in
anyway proprietary. This allows for much simpler integration with existing
equipment and tools.
In addition this allows you to be secure with the knowledge that any future
tools will be able to integrate with your investment.
|
Future Proof
|
| The use of open standards within the Nexis platform ensures that your
investment is protected and has future longevity. Support for future
technologies, such as WiMAX, are supported via simple radio module upgrades.
|
Reliability of Service |
| The mesh network topology provides a self-healing and fault tolerant service.
|
Easy Custom Solutions |
| The built-in Nexis application platform allows you
to perform highly specialised tasks on the Nexis unit
itself e.g. manage and monitor PLC functions via Nexis.
