Access Point Enclosures for Hazardous Locations

Analynk Access Point Enclosure for Hazardous Locations: Isolation of Wireless Access Points from Explosive Vapors in Tightly Regulated Industries Including Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Pharmaceutical and Chemical


Analynk's access point enclosures provide protection in Class 1, Division 1 and 2 locations, Groups A, B, C, & D and ATEX Zone 1 and 2 areas, as well as less restrictive environments. These enclosures securely allow for the deployment of Aruba, Cisco, Hewlett Packard, Meraki, and Motorola wireless access points.

Analynk access point enclosures facilitate wireless connectivity in locations deploying "explosion-proof" equipment and devices, meeting the stringent standards that apply in today's hazardous area electrical certifications. Wireless installations on oil rigs, in refineries, in chemical plants, and in pharmaceutical plants use these enclosures to extend the wireless network into locations that were previously unreachable, allowing wireless communications to go where it was previously not possible.

Analynk, located in Columbus, Ohio, also manufactures a wide array of other industrial wireless products including Hazardous Area Antennas, Hazardous Area RF Enclosures, Hazardous Area Wireless Transmitters & Receivers, Wireless DC Powered Transmitters & Receivers, Wireless Expansion Modules, and Wireless Repeaters.

New Analynk 4G LTE Hazardous Area Antenna Nears Release


Analynk will soon release a new 4G LTE hazardous area antenna to compliment its existing line of rugged, industrial hazardous area antennas.  For details, call (614) 755-5091 or email info@analynk.com.

Why 4G?

Sure, everyone's talking about 5G and it's impact on industrial networks. By broadening the scope of applications possible with cellular technologies, there's no doubt 5G will connect industry like never before. However, it won't be soon.

The unfortunate truth is that features specific for industrial 5G use are not expected to be part of the 5G standard until 2021.  If you then consider the years it will take to introduce production runs of 5G chips, smooth out production processes, and stabilize their performance in varying applications, you're at least 4-5 years away from meaningful industrial 5G implementation.

In the meantime, non-public networks, owned and managed by large organizations or service providers, will be the most logical and efficient way to solve the challenges of availability, data privacy, reliability, and quick rollouts. This, coupled with backward compatibility from 4G LTE to 5G being a core strategy of the 3GPP consortium, presents a strong argument toward the adoption of 4G LTE networks as the most logical and effcient path forward.

Considering that 4G LTE's momentum continues, and forecasts predict it will continue to grow its user base for years to come, it stands to reason that "4G now" is the perfect bridge for adoption as you move toward Industry 4.0 and 5G.
