Intelligent FIPS Wi-Fi embedded module with RS-232 and ethernet interfaces
The SX-590-1402 is a FIPS 140-2 cryptographic module. It adds a Wi-Fi interface to products aimed at US governmental facilities and agencies.
Wireless communication compliant with FIPS 140-2 requirements
In FIPS 140-2 mode, Wi-Fi connection is established only through FIPS 140-2 certified WLAN authentication and WLAN data encryption with 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.
Low-power Wi-Fi embedded module
SX-590-1402 uses a low-power CPU, i.MX 6ULL, which reduces the overall system power consumption. It also supports additional power management features which help reduce power usage during periods of inactivity.
Various connectivity models
The SX-590-1402 supports various network connectivity models.
Serial connection over Wireless/Wired LAN
Wi-Fi infrastructure mode
An embedded serial port can be accessed through a Wi-Fi access point.
Wi-Fi access point mode
The SX-590-1402 adds accessibility to an embedded serial port as an access point.
Wired LAN mode
The SX-590-1402 supports a 10Base-T / 100Base-T interface to access an embedded serial port.
eCable mode
Embedded serial devices communicate with each other through SX-590-1402’s network interface.
Wi-Fi adapter utilizing existing ethernet port
An Ethernet port on an SoC (System-on-Chip) can be converted to a Wi-Fi interface by the SX-590-1402 Ethernet to Wi-Fi bridge feature.
