Siemens SCALANCE 6GK5788-2FC00-0AA0 Terminal Blocks

Description

The 6GK5788-2FC00-0AA0 is a SCALANCE W788-2 RJ45 industrial wireless LAN access point engineered for high-performance wireless communication in automation networks. This dual-radio device supports IEEE 802.11a/b/g/h/n standards across 2.4 and 5 GHz frequency bands, delivering a gross data rate of 450 Mbit/s per radio. It features 6 R-SMA antenna ports, one RJ45 port supporting up to 1 Gbit/s, Power over Ethernet (PoE), and redundant 24 V DC power inputs via a terminal block. Designed with an IP30 enclosure rating, it operates reliably within a temperature range of -20 degC to +60 degC. Typical industrial applications include automated guided vehicles (AGVs), mobile control panels, warehouse logistics networks, and plant-wide industrial wireless infrastructures. It is fully compatible with standard Siemens Industrial Ethernet and IWLAN network architectures.
