Solution for Managing Remote Industrial Cellular Connections

There is a great demand in the market for remote monitoring of systems and equipment in the industrial, transport and energy areas. These applications require 24x7 monitoring of equipment located in locations without Internet communication by operational control centers (CCOs).

The easiest and simplest way to enable this communication is through a cellular modem or router. The equipment is installed at a remote location and a chip from any operator is inserted. From that moment on, any remote device will be able to access the Internet.

However, the opposite path is not trivially possible, that is, a system connected to the Internet would not be able to find the address of this cellular router on the network without the help of another system capable of bridging the gap between the supervisor and the remote equipment. .

There are homemade solutions capable of remotely managing a few units (typically 20, 30) but for large applications, it is impossible to manage a network efficiently, safely and guarantee the SLA required by the customer.

With this market niche in mind, Above-Net developed Bridgemanager , capable of connecting and managing the connection between the supervisory system and remote equipment as if it were a bridge between the two points .
