communications over RS-485 or Ethernet LAN provide
universal integration and system interoperability. The optional OPC functionality from the
Gateway offers a means to connect to newer systems and applications while providing a richer
set of data.
The Smart Wireless Gateway provides industry leading security, scalability, and data reliability.
Layered security ensures that the network stays protected. Additional devices can be added at
