- Compact and lightweight
System Configuration
Data Collector Transmission Module RTU, GMP343 Carbon Dioxide Sensor, Data Collection Presentation Platform
Wireless Data Acquisition Transmission Module
The TBSL1/RFB-4G is a versatile RTU for outdoor applications, acting as a multi-sensor wireless bridge that can operate on any LTE 4G network based on its dual-mode modem. A flexible platform suitable for a wide range of commonly used sensors in ecological environment monitoring, it is built-in with a variety of sensor interfaces, including SDI-12, pulse and analogue, etc.; the TBSL1/RFB-4G relies on the MQTT protocol to exchange data with the application server, which ensures the stability of the transmission and the quality of the data. During the transmission measurement cycle, the platform establishes a (secure) TCP/IP connection with the MQTT proxy server and issues its measurement commands.
