Rajant will replace wired connections for industrial networking and beyond. Imagine being able to go anywhere with a piece of equipment? Then, repurpose it, retask it, stripe the ground, and do something different with it, and you don’t have to worry about any of that trailing cable. That’s Rajant wireless.
