Highlights at a glance

Built for industrial connectivity that can't fail

Dual-SIM failover

Two SIM slots with automatic failover keep industrial links online through carrier outages.

RS232 & RS485 built in

Direct PLC communication and Modbus TCP/RTU data collection from serial field devices.

MQTT cloud reporting

Publish field telemetry to any MQTT cloud platform for remote monitoring and IoT applications.

Multi-protocol VPN

SD-WAN, WireGuard, OpenVPN, IPsec and L2TP for secure remote access to every site.

Secure industrial VPN for remote engineering

Reach NVR, IoT or PLC equipment through encrypted tunnels — SD-WAN, WireGuard, IPsec, OpenVPN or m2mCloud — from the engineering desk to the field side, without exposing the machine network.

  • Client/server switchable OpenVPN with 40 encryption methods
  • Up to 10 IPsec tunnels (IKEv1/IKEv2, DES to AES256)
  • SD-WAN or server-relay secure remote access

Centralized data collection at the edge

One gateway connects NVR, IoT, PLCs, sensors, meters and drives over RS485 and Ethernet, normalizing Modbus data for upstream systems.

  • Modbus functions 01–06 supported
  • 16/32/64-bit data formats: INT, UINT, HEX, Float, Long, Double (and inverse)
  • Compatible with mainstream global NVR, IoT and PLC brands

Modbus RTU to MQTT/TCP cloud reporting

Turn field data into real-time cloud monitoring. Collect from RS485 devices and publish structured telemetry to your MQTT or TCP cloud platform.

  • MQTT publisher, subscriber and answer modes
  • Modbus TCP/RTU status and control
  • Dashboards for device, uptime, telemetry and alerts

Remote management, anywhere

Configure, monitor and diagnose field devices remotely through the WebUI and JSON-RPC API (NVR, IoT, PLC) — from Anywhere Office, solar stations and water pumps to weather stations and level sensors.

  • HTTP WebUI: status, configuration, firmware update, logs
  • JSON-RPC management API over HTTP
  • Firmware updates without losing configuration
