The AWK-1161C Series is the smallest range of industrial wireless clients on the market, engineered to provide a dedicated and seamless connection for a single moving device. They are ideal for ensuring uninterrupted data transmission to AGVs, mobile inspection equipment, and robotic arms with limited onboard space. Leveraging Wi-Fi 6 OFDMA and spatial reuse technologies, these clients deliver robust and efficient communication, even in high-density environments.

At the heart of the AWK-1161C Series’ performance is the client-based Turbo Roaming technology, which achieves millisecond-level handovers between access points. This eliminates packet loss during transitions, maintaining continuous production, and enhancing operational efficiency. For maximum system flexibility, its AP-agnostic design ensures seamless interoperability with any brand of Wi-Fi access point.
