Advantage of Using Axiom Data Spread Spectrum Telemetry

The typical range for many field applications is 1 to 7 miles, however, the AXM series has been effectively used up to a maximum range of 15 mile, under optimum conditions. Spread spectrum telemetry requires no FCC license and no FCC site approval prior to use, as required by conventional radio communication techniques. The product may be used in applications where new field devices are being installed, or it may be used to replace aged serial communication wiring, as found with many pre-existing field systems. End users often find Axiom Data spread spectrum products enhance overall communication reliability and eliminate electrical problems between field devices by providing electrical isolation.
