Industrial IoT
What is the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)?
The term Internet of Things (IoT) has become one of the most widely used terms in business and industry in recent years. However, it's difficult to differentiate IoT verticals within the broader concept of the Internet of Things, with its distinct requirements, applications, target audiences, and strategies.
Few realize that the largest vertical of all focuses on the last level and is called the Industrial Internet of Things, or IIoT. Industrial applications are those that demand a high level of reliability in often hostile environments where failures represent enormous financial loss or a high risk to life. Therefore, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) encompasses a vast array of markets with applications in energy, transportation, oil and gas, manufacturing, sanitation, agriculture, logistics, aviation, and many others.
We can define the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) as the integration of machine sensors, middleware, software and back-end calculation systems and cloud storage to gain better visibility and insight into company operations and assets.
Therefore, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) provides a method for transforming business operational processes using as feedback the results obtained when receiving large data sets through advanced analytics.

Who needs to use Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)?
The complexity of industrial systems has surpassed the human operator's ability to recognize and address efficiencies, making it difficult to achieve improvements through traditional means, resulting in machines operating well below their capabilities. These factors alone provide operational incentives to implement new solutions.
The potential of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is vast , with opportunities spanning broad productivity areas such as logistics, aviation, transportation, healthcare, energy production and distribution, oil and gas production, and manufacturing, among many others. As a result, numerous use cases will prompt industry executives to wake up and consider the possibilities of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). After all, industry requires only a minimal shift in productivity to generate significant revenue. For example, even a 1% increase in productivity can yield enormous revenue benefits, such as fuel savings in aviation.
Until now, the challenge has been to materialize a solution to adapt to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and achieve these potential profits in an operation where IIoT is not its core business. Consultants typically focus on business models and operational efficiency, which is certainly attractive when demonstrating financial gains and new business models that are easily understood. Unfortunately, these presentations often impress and invigorate executives, who see the business benefits but fail to reveal the technical abstraction of the lower-layer complexity that underpins the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
Above Above-Net has a solution for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) called Bridgemeter IIoT, composed of hardware and software, offered as a service capable of meeting any data collection requirement from equipment, machines and controllers, and offering real-time decision support with a very low implementation cost.

What are the advantages of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)?
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) offers significant benefits, including increased operational efficiency, cost reduction, improved quality control, and data-driven decision-making . It integrates processes, improves safety, optimizes asset management, and promotes sustainability.
Companies that embrace IIoT can gain a competitive advantage as they are better prepared to respond to changing market demands and operate efficiently.
The difficulty until now was to materialize the solution to adapt to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and obtain these potential profits in an operation where IIoT is not its core business.
Bridgemeter IIoT, Above-Net 's , has brought to the market the possibility of reliable, low-cost deployment capable of confirming return on investment in a very short time.
Business gains are achieved through increased operational efficiency and accelerated productivity, which results in less unplanned downtime, reduced travel, optimized efficiency and therefore profits.
The solution's success stories demonstrate operational and financial advantages, including reduced travel costs, reduced energy and water consumption, increased productivity, reduced operational risks, reduced labor, reduced downtime, and predictive and preventive analysis.
