Industrial Remote Cellular Connection Management Solution
There is a high market demand for remote monitoring of systems and equipment in the industrial, transportation, and energy sectors. These applications require 24/7 monitoring of equipment located in areas without internet access by operational control centers (OCCs).
The easiest and simplest way to enable this communication is through a cellular modem or router. The equipment is installed at the remote location and a SIM card from any carrier is inserted. From that moment on, any remote device will have internet access.
However, companies that rely on remote connections to field equipment face critical challenges in ensuring business continuity. Contracting Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) without a network architecture specifically designed for this type of application results in extremely low connection SLAs , causing downtime that disrupts operations and requires frequent field visits.
Furthermore, the path to access the equipment for configuration is not straightforward; 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 supervisory system and the remote equipment.
Flexible Architecture
Capable of transparently and autonomously self-managing the connection between a remote cellular device and the supervisory system. Resolves dynamic IP addressing and CGNAT issues from cellular data operators.
