The OnCell G3111-HSPA can conveniently and transparently connect existing Ethernet and serial devices to a 3G cellular network, such as PLCs, flow computers, vision systems, RFID readers or encoders.
Designed to meet industrial-grade standards, the unit features the company's GuaranLink technology and OnCell Central Manager Software for stable cellular connectivity and to make it easy to configure, manage, and monitor remote devices on a private network over the Internet. It supports universal quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 MHz and five-band UMTS/HSPA 850/800, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz. The gateway can be used on a desktop or mounted on a DIN rail. It comes with a 12 to 48 VDC power input and has 2 kV EFT/surge protection to allow the use of different types of field power sources. Serial ports are protected by 15 kV ESD line protection to keep the system safe from unexpected electrical discharges. The device is especially timely because 2G users on the AT&T network will be required to upgrade or migrate their existing hardware, with plans to sunset 2G support, with complete shutdown of the network scheduled for January 1, 2017.
