Data Acquisition & Telemetry


High-speed wireless communication with 3G modem

June 2011 Data Acquisition & Telemetry

A powerful UMTS router is now available with the new 3G modem from Phoenix Contact’s Industrial Modem Line. With its data transfer rate of up to 7,2 Mbit/s, it can be used in applications that demand fast data transmission. A comprehensive set of security functions offers effective protection against unauthorised access to machines and plants. The integrated firewall and VPN connections with IPsec or OpenVPN encryption ensure reliable protection against manipulation and data theft.

Six configurable switching inputs allow critical plant or system states to be signalled via SMS or e-mail. When required, four integrated switching outputs allow plant or system sections to be controlled using password-protected SMS. A second SIM card can be used to configure a redundant network.

The Industrial Modem Line from Phoenix Contact offers optimum remote access every application. The analogue, wireless and SHDSL modems are especially suitable for applications in harsh industrial environments and allow reliable data connections to be established to machines and plants anywhere in the world independent of any particular control system.
