MOXA AWK-1151C Industrial Wireless Client

MOXA AWK-1151C Industrial Wireless Client

The MOXA AWK-1151C is a specialized industrial wireless client designed to provide reliable Wi-Fi connectivity for moving industrial equipment such as AGVs, robotic systems, automated machinery and mobile production equipment. It supports IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wave 2 and selectable dual-band operation, delivering wireless transmission rates of up to 400 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and 867 Mbps on 5 GHz.

One of the key advantages of the AWK-1151C is its AP-agnostic client-based Turbo Roaming. This allows the wireless client to roam between access points from different vendors while maintaining connectivity for mobile equipment. Under Moxa's optimized test conditions, Turbo Roaming provides sub-150 ms roaming recovery. The device also supports 802.11r Fast Roaming for improved interoperability and faster handovers.

Technical Specifications

Reliable Wireless Connectivity for Mobile Industrial Equipment

The AWK-1151C is engineered for applications where industrial machines need to remain connected while moving between multiple wireless access points. Its client-based roaming technology helps maintain network connectivity during transitions, making it suitable for AGVs, automated guided vehicles, robotic arms, warehouse equipment, industrial vehicles and mobile production systems.

The device is designed to work with access points from different manufacturers, making it useful for industrial environments where existing wireless infrastructure must be retained. Support for 802.11r further improves roaming performance and interoperability with compatible wireless networks.

Dual-Band Wi-Fi 5 and Industrial Networking

With selectable 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz operation, the AWK-1151C provides flexibility when deploying wireless connectivity around machinery, production lines and industrial facilities. The 5 GHz interface supports 802.11ac Wave 2 with transmission rates up to 867 Mbps, while the 2.4 GHz interface supports rates up to 400 Mbps.

The integrated 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band-pass filter helps improve wireless reliability, while integrated antenna isolation provides protection against external electrical interference. DFS channel support is available for compatible 5 GHz configurations to provide additional channel choices in environments with wireless interference.

Industrial Design, Security and Management

The AWK-1151C combines a compact metal enclosure with IP30 protection, DIN-rail mounting and 9–30 VDC power input. Standard models support -25 to 60°C operation, while wide-temperature -T versions support -40 to 75°C for harsher industrial environments.

Security features include WPA/WPA2/WPA3-Personal and Enterprise authentication, IEEE 802.1X/RADIUS, AES encryption, HTTPS/SSL, SSH and certificate management. Network management is supported through SNMP, MXconfig, MXview One and MXview Wireless.

Model and Regional Compatibility

The AWK-1151C Series is available in UN and US regional models, including standard and wide-temperature versions. Wireless channels and regulatory operation depend on the selected country or region code. For a specific deployment, confirm the exact AWK-1151C variant and required regulatory configuration before purchasing.

The AWK-1151C is primarily a wireless client, not a general-purpose standalone Wi-Fi access point. It is therefore particularly appropriate when connecting a wired industrial machine or mobile device to an existing Wi-Fi infrastructure.
