Advantech's industrial Fieldbus gateways provide seamless communication between Fieldbus and industrial Ethernet devices as well as support for different protocols such as MQTT,BACnet, Ethernet/IP, EtherCat, PROFINET, and OPC UA.
BACnet Gateways
The BACnet Fieldbus gateway offers a viable solution for efficiently converting data from devices that use different protocols, avoiding the need for expensive device purchases and minimizing the risk of software programming errors.
Node-RED Gateways
Node-RED features in its drag-and-drop programming functionality. Using the browser-based programming tool, users can adopt themselves in any environment. Advantech Node-RED Fieldbus gateways EKI-1242NR and EKI-1242INR serve as multi-protocol converters. The protocols under conversion are all based on the Node-RED programming. It allows control centers (in any environment) to connect to legacy devices for data acquisition.
OPC UA Gateways
Advantech's OPC UA features in its upgradability and compatibility and is widely used in control system, MES and ERP. Being deployed on a variety of systems by SOAP/XML over HTTP, OPC UA is with high security because the data is protected by authentication and encryption mechanism.
