Many medical and industrial devices like measuring instruments, meters, sensors, industrial displays, and label printers that are equipped with the RS-232C serial interface or Ethernet interface, can now be enabled with secure, robust wireless network capability. SD-330AC-1402 is the successor product of the SX-500 FIPS version, which has been widely deployed in the market. Features/Benefits **Connect serial/Ethernet devices to Wi-Fi network** Easily connect and share RS-232C serial or Ethernet devices on 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi network. This eliminates the restriction in equipment installation and mobility.   Best add-on Wi-Fi product to legacy serial and Ethernet devices for U.S. and Canadian government facilities and agencies The SD-330AC-1402 adds a secure Wi-Fi interface to legacy serial and Ethernet devices for U.S. and Canadian government facilities and agencies which require FIPS 140-2 cryptographic module. The SD-330AC-1402 is the best fit for those who are looking for FIPS 140-2 products to convert serial or Ethernet interface to Wi-Fi interface.   **Wi-Fi communication with FIPS-certified encryption ** In FIPS 140-2 mode, Wi-Fi connection is established only through FIPS 140-2 certified WLAN authentication and WLAN data encryption using WPA2-PSK (AES). In addition, the end-to-end application security is established by TLS encryption. Firmware is securely stored in the device and secure boot protects the device from booting up with unauthorized firmware image.   **Mobility support for mobile serial/Ethernet devices.** The SD-330AC-1402 supports fast roaming to connect mobile serial or Ethernet devices among Wi-Fi networks. This will minimize the downtime of the wireless connection and increase the communication efficiency.   **Various connectivity models** The SD-330AC-1402 provides flexibility in the deployment based on the available infrastructure by supporting various connectivity models. **Serial Device Server** **Wi-Fi infrastructure mode** The SD-330AC-1402 connects a serial device to an existing Wi-Fi network. ![SD_infrastructure_mode](https://www.silextechnology.com/hubfs/images/SD-330AC-1402/SD_infrastructure_mode.png) **Wi-Fi Access Point mode** The SD-330AC-1402 operates as an access point to communicate with a serial device even if there is no available network infrastructure. ![](https://www.silextechnology.com/hubfs/image-png-Sep-22-2020-10-52-00-06-PM.png) **Wired LAN mode** the SD-330AC-1402 connects a serial device to wired LAN infrastructure. ![](https://www.silextechnology.com/hubfs/image-png-Sep-22-2020-10-53-12-46-PM.png) **eCable mode** The serial devices communicate with each other by using two SD-330AC-1402. ![](https://www.silextechnology.com/hubfs/image-png-Sep-22-2020-10-55-45-28-PM.png) **Ethernet to Wi-Fi bridge (Wi-Fi client)** **Multi-client mode** The SD-330AC-1402 connects up to 16 Ethernet devices through an Ethernet hub/switch to a Wi-Fi network. ![](https://www.silextechnology.com/hubfs/image-png-Sep-22-2020-11-13-54-27-PM.png) Specifications | **Model Number** | SD-330AC-1402 | | --- | --- | | **Wired LAN** | 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX | | **Wireless Standard** | IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Dual-band | | **Wi-Fi Security** | **FIPS mode** WPA2-PSK (AES) **Non-FIPS mode** Open (128bit) / WPA-PSK (AUTO) / WPA2-PSK (AES) | | **Device Interface** | RS-232C (D-sub9) Ethernet (RJ-45) | | **Storage Temperature** **Humidity** | -20 ~ + 70°C 20 ~ 90% RH | | **Operating Temperature** **Humidity** | 0 ~ + 50°C 20% ~ 80% RH (non-condensing) | | **Power Supply** | 2.5W (DC5V / 0.5A) DC Jack (EIAJ Class2) or DB-9 Pin9 | | **Regulatory Compliance** | FCC Class B, ICES-003 Class B, RoHS FIPS 140-2 (Certificate #4241) |   Documentation [SD-330AC-1402 Security Policy](https://csrc.nist.gov/CSRC/media/projects/cryptographic-module-validation-program/documents/security-policies/140sp4241.pdf) [SD-330AC-1402 User Guidance](https://www.silextechnology.com/hubfs/Resource%20PDF/140-00215-230A_SX-590-1402_User%20Guidance_r2.pdf?hsLang=en-us) [SD-330AC-1402 Cryptographic Officer Guidance Manual](https://www.silextechnology.com/hubfs/Resource%20PDF/140-00215-210A_SX-590-1402_FIPS140_Cryptographic%20Officer%20Guidance%20Manual_r2.pdf?hsLang=en-us) [FIPS Certification](https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/cryptographic-module-validation-program/certificate/4241)   Support **Software:** | Name | Revision | | --- | --- | | [SX-Finder](https://www.silextechnology.com/hubfs/Resource%20PDF/sx-finder-1-0.zip) | 1.0.0. |   **Warranty and RMA's** [Limited Warranty and RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) Policy](https://www.silextechnology.com/support/warranty-and-return-policy?hsLang=en-us) ### Additional resources ![white-paper-image](https://www.silextechnology.com/hs-fs/hubfs/images/SD-330AC-1402/white-paper-image.jpg?width=800&name=white-paper-image.jpg) What is FIPS 140-2 and TAA?
