SMART RADIO
4RF has a long history of developing high performance radios, and the Aprisa SR+ builds on this same engineering excellence.
The Aprisa SR+ is distance-engineered and optimised for SCADA and telemetry applications, providing reliable, robust performance however demanding the conditions: what we call ‘real world radio’. RF performance is unbeatable, with attention paid to every element of the design: transmitter, receiver, modulation and efficiency.
The receiver maintains exceptional low noise operation via excellent sensitivity for greater distance and high selectivity and intermodulation suppression for superior protection from interference.
This performance is complemented by fast switching circuitry and high transmit power ensuring long distance operation with exceptional system reliability and availability.

SMART MANAGEMENT
Visual Diagnostics and Intuitive Network Management
It doesn’t matter how good your radios are if you have no visibility of their performance, or if it is difficult to configure and manage your radios or your network.
The Aprisa SR+ incorporates a number of simple, yet smart, features to make it easy to manage your SCADA network, both at an individual radio level and at a complete network level. Detailed network monitoring means that faulty or failed RTUs can be easily identified.
Multiple LEDs provide easy visibility of status and alarm information, together with a test button that enables the display of key parameters such as RSSI. The Aprisa SR+ has LED indicators on each of the serial and Ethernet data ports which indicate the presence of data on the port.
The SuperVisor application supports local element management via IP and remote element management over the air from a PC connected to the Aprisa base station. SNMP support allows network-wide monitoring and control via a third party network management system such as Castlerock SNMPc. With the Aprisa MIBs configurations compiled into SNMPc, the management system can be used to visualise, monitor and manage the Aprisa network, as well as gathering and displaying performance statistics.

SMART SECURITY
Defense in Depth
Security is more than just encryption. It’s about ensuring that the entire SCADA network is protected and that all vulnerabilities are secured against attack, whether accidental or malicious.
The Aprisa SR family incorporates an in depth approach to security, what we call a 360 degree approach. This takes into account security fundamentals, types and sources of attack, and protecting all data and management interfaces, as well as incorporating industry standards and recommendations. This approach protects against passive eavesdropping, active denial of service, ‘man-in-the-middle’ attacks and attacks at a management level.
The Aprisa SR+ security includes all of the following:

The security of the Aprisa SR family extends to the fact that it is a privately owned and controlled network, avoiding dependence on any third party operators. It is your critical infrastructure: why trust it to anyone else?
SMART INTERFACES
Wide Range of Traffic and Management Interfaces
The Aprisa SR family is designed to provide a future-proof SCADA radio solution, as well as making network management as easy as possible. With support for both serial and IP traffic, you can migrate to IP at your own pace.
Incorporating a comprehensive range of interfaces to provide maximum flexibility for communication, configuration and control, you can choose the Aprisa product that best meets the needs of your network and applications.
Multiple serial and Ethernet ports enable the simultaneous connection of multiple RTUs and enable management of the radio over-the-air, using the web based GUI, without interrupting user data. Local firmware upgrades and radio configuration can be carried out securely using a USB flash drive.
A dedicated USB management port allows the management and configuration of the radio using a Command Line Interface (CLI).

SMART OPERATION
Your Network. You’re in Charge
All networks are different. The Aprisa SR family takes account of this by enabling you to configure a number of detailed parameters to optimise your network, dependent on your network topology.
As well as the general network configurability supported by SuperVisor, you can configure a number of parameters that directly impact network efficiency, including:
The smart operation of the Aprisa SR family extends to its protection options. The Aprisa protected station consists of two standard radios and a protection switch, ideal where base station redundancy is needed.
- Channel access mode, Access Request or Listen Before Send
- Ethernet and serial port priority settings
- Network filtering and security settings
- Initial set up specifications pre-configured
- Flexible, simple mounting options
- Use of lightweight antennas
- Local LED display to aid antenna alignment
- Automatic remote station registration
- Intuitive ‘point and click’ management software
- Multiple mechanisms for radio management
- Easy software upgrade process
- Integration with third party network managers
