Technical specifications and application overview for the VAHLE SMGM and SMGX slot microwave guide data transmission systems for industrial mobile applications.
The VAHLE SMGM and SMGX systems are data transmission solutions designed for mobile applications in industrial environments. The SMGM system is optimized for indoor use, such as in intralogistics, shuttle systems, and push-skid applications, while the robust SMGX system is designed for outdoor applications like crane systems and amusement rides. Both systems utilize a slot microwave guide principle to ensure high-frequency communication within a slot waveguide, providing interference-free data transfer without the need for radio licensing.

No, a radio license is not required because the signal is not radiated externally due to the special construction of the waveguide.
The SMGM system is recommended for indoor applications, including intralogistics, shuttle systems (Schubskid), and EHB systems.
The Standard version supports up to 15 mobile participants per segment.
No, the interfaces do not require an IP address as the communication is transparent and packet-oriented.
