MS Industrial Networks has introduced the Netbiter EC350 communication gateway, designed to make it easier to monitor and control industrial equipment remotely. The gateway comes with enhanced performance and connectivity, making it suitable for remote management and configuration of power generators, cooling systems, UPSs, wind turbines or other industrial machinery.

The Netbiter EC350 is the first in a new generation of Netbiter gateways. It connects to industrial machinery via Modbus (serial or ethernet), SNMP, EtherNet/IP or I/O and sends data to the cloud-based Netbiter Argos server via Ethernet or cellular communications.

The Netbiter EC350 has been enhanced to communicate over 3G networks in addition to GSM/GPRS, and supports five different 3G bands.

The EC350 also supports remote access functionality. Remote access provides a secure data tunnel to the remotely located equipment, so for example, with a Netbiter connected to a PLC, it is possible to perform remote debugging or programming of the PLC using the same PLC configuration software as usual.

The gateway is claimed to have 20 times more processing power than previous models and an extended memory capacity supporting up to 512 MB Flash and 1024 MB RAM. Two fully separated Ethernet interfaces (WAN and LAN) make it possible to provide secure communication to the field installation. A built-in GPS receiver makes it suitable for mobile fleet management applications and the increased number of analog and digital I/Os allow signals and sensors to be directly connected to the Netbiter gateway. Six status LEDs also provide detailed diagnostics.
