The Most Feature Rich, Deployment-Ready Wi-Fi Networking and Web Server Module
– Now with Software Development Kit

PremierWave® EN delivers a new dimension of Wi-Fi networking with the highest levels of security to virtually any device or electronic product. It provides affordable connectivity in a compact form factor, enabling OEMs to add Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet networking to their products on a single PCB design.

With a choice of Wi-Fi or Ethernet connectivity, PremierWave EN takes the complexity out of RF design and networking. OEMs can focus on their core competencies while minimizing engineering risk, shortening development time and reducing development cost.

Wi-Fi Network Processor Module

PremierWave EN has a dedicated 32-bit processor module that manages wireless connectivity and web services. With its high performance, ample memory and Linux OS, PremierWave EN can be designed as the primary host processor for demanding applications.

Bulletproof Security

With an unmatched portfolio of security technologies, PremierWave EN goes far beyond compliance with the popular 802.11i, WPA and WPA2 wireless security specifications. It ensures data integrity and privacy for highly sensitive requirements such as medical or financial applications.

  • IEEE 802.11i-compliant radio with AES-CCMP and TKIP encryption
  • PSK and complete suite of 802.1x Extensible Authentication Protocols (EAP) including EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, PEAP, and EAP-PEAP
  • End-to-end SSL TLS and SSH tunneling

SmartRoam to Enable Seamless Mobile Connectivity

With exclusive SmartRoam technology,* PremierWave EN continuously tracks the signal strength of access points (AP) within range. If necessary, pre-authentication and caching enables smooth and automatic transition to an access point with a stronger signal. This enhances mobility within a building, warehouse or across a campus network with less time spent re-authenticating due to a lost connection or re-associating to a stronger signal.

* Feature will be available on future firmware release.

Scan, Gather and Report Radio Parameters

With an unmatched portfolio of security technologies, PremierWave EN scans current AP and Received Signal Strength radio parameters, as well as authentication and negotiated encryption types for the current association, and displays them on a web page. This enables remote technicians to diagnose problems as they occur and troubleshoot over any IP network without a service call, reducing support costs and unnecessary visits.

Linux and Web Server Technologies

Featuring Linux, PremierWave's integrated CGI-capable web server transforms a standalone device into a networked product that can be managed remotely via a standard web browser. CGI capability enables users to remotely monitor and collect information from the device in real-time and send the information to dynamic web pages.

Flexible & Intelligent Design

Designed with an on-board antenna and option for external antennas and diversity, PremierWave EN provides the flexibility to locate the antenna and connector based on design requirements. PremierWave EN also includes a user-controlled, intelligent power management option to shut down the radio during periods of inactivity, minimizing current power consumption.

FCC Certified for Immediate Deployment

PremierWave EN is module-certified by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) enabling OEMs to leverage the Lantronix FCC license grant and bypass 802.11 regulatory testing. PremierWave EN has been pre-tested for European telecommunications regulations.

*Available via future firmware release.
