Product Introduction
The Broadband Power Line Communication (PLC) Modem KS900M is an industrial-grade communication device based on the IEEE P1901 standard. It utilizes OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation/demodulation technology and complies with the EU EN-50561 standard. This modem leverages existing power lines or slip contact busbars (conductor rails) as the information transmission medium to achieve high-speed, long-distance data transmission. It features high communication rates, bidirectional transparent transmission, excellent transmission stability, strong scalability, and robust anti-interference capabilities.
The KS900M incorporates built-in LDPC (Low-Density Parity-Check) error correction codec and AES-128-bit encryption algorithms. It also features a built-in routing algorithm that enables automatic networking and supports various network topologies, including bus, star, and tree structures. This modem offers data transparent transmission functionality with a 100 Mbps bandwidth and an extended transmission distance. The point-to-point transmission distance can reach up to 500 meters over power lines and up to 2000 meters over coaxial cable.
The KS900M features independent dual-channel data interfaces, supporting simultaneous PLC communication via both Ethernet port and RS485 serial port data. To cater to different application scenarios, the KS900M is available in multiple versions. Hardware versions include the Standard Edition, High-Bandwidth Edition, Long-Distance Edition, and Broadcast Edition. Software versions include the High-Performance Edition, Relay Edition, and Slip Contact Line Special Edition.
Configuration of the KS900M is extremely simple, requiring only a one-click setting of Master and Slave via a DIP switch. When the DIP switch is set to the "M" position, the device acts as the Master. When set to the "S" position, it acts as a Slave. In a single network, there is one and only one Master. This Master can connect to either one Slave or multiple Slaves.
The KS900M meets industrial-grade standards and features a DIN-rail mounting method. Its power supply voltage is DC 12–48V, and it is suitable for PLC communication on power lines or slip contact lines rated below AC 380V or DC 500V. The product fully utilizes existing power line networks, eliminating the need for new signal cable installation and thereby optimizing the complex wiring processes typically associated with network setup.Applications
