Industrial Wi-Fi 5 Connectivity
The AWK-1151C-US provides dual-band industrial wireless connectivity using Wi-Fi 5 technology. Its 2.4 GHz interface can deliver up to 400 Mbps, while the 5 GHz 802.11ac Wave 2 interface supports up to 867 Mbps. The US model uses US-specific wireless frequency allocations, so available channels and operation must comply with applicable regulatory requirements.
The device also supports DFS channels in applicable 5 GHz bands, providing additional channel choices for environments where wireless interference may be a concern. Moxa's integrated 2.4/5 GHz band-pass filter is designed to improve wireless reliability, while antenna isolation helps protect the wireless interface from external electrical interference.
Turbo Roaming for Mobile Industrial Equipment
A major advantage of the AWK-1151C-US is its AP-agnostic client-based Turbo Roaming. This architecture allows the wireless client to roam between access points, including access points from different manufacturers, which can be valuable in industrial facilities with large wireless coverage areas.
Moxa specifies sub-150 ms Turbo Roaming recovery under optimized test conditions. Actual roaming performance depends on the access points, RF environment, security configuration, traffic load and other network conditions. The device also supports IEEE 802.11r Fast Roaming for faster handovers and improved third-party interoperability.
Industrial Ethernet and Network Management
The AWK-1151C-US includes one 10/100/1000BaseT(X) Gigabit Ethernet port with support for IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, 802.3az, VLAN tagging and IEEE 802.1X authentication. NAT, static routing and port forwarding allow the unit to be integrated into different industrial network architectures.
Management capabilities include HTTP/HTTPS, SSH, Telnet, SNMPv1/v2c/v3, Syslog, MXconfig, MXview One and MXview Wireless. Firewall filtering includes ICMP, MAC address, IP protocol, port-based, client isolation and Wi-Fi ACL functions.
Industrial Security and Physical Design
The AWK-1151C-US supports WPA/WPA2/WPA3-Personal and Enterprise security with IEEE 802.1X/RADIUS, TKIP and AES. This provides a modern security platform for industrial WLAN deployments where authentication and encrypted wireless communication are required.
The metal IP30 enclosure measures 100 x 130 x 22 mm and weighs approximately 436 g. DIN-rail mounting is provided as standard, with optional wall mounting available. The unit operates from 9 to 30 VDC and has a maximum power consumption of 14 W.
US Model Compatibility
AWK-1151C-US is the US-region standard-temperature model. Moxa also offers AWK-1151C-US-T for -40 to 75°C wide-temperature operation. The US model should be selected when the wireless deployment requires the US regulatory frequency configuration. The exact country and channel requirements should be confirmed before installation.
The AWK-1151C-US is particularly suitable for factory automation, AGVs, mobile industrial equipment, robotics, warehouse systems, machine connectivity and industrial networks requiring reliable wireless roaming.
