As an e
asy-to-install, high-density RTU, the NetGuardian effectively monitors sites with a lot of discrete alarm
points.
Effective, easy-to-install, light-capacity alarm monitoring
The NetGuardian (NG) is a compact, LAN-based, high-density remote telemetry unit. The NetGuardian is designed
for easy installation at remote sites with up to 80 discrete alarm points, making it cost-effective to deploy alarm
monitoring at your larger facilities.
Powerful monitoring for high-density sites
The NetGuardian is based on the time-tested NetGuardian 832A design. This telco-grade remote is housed in a
durable aluminum case. This SNMP remote is scaled to the needs of high-density sites that require a lot of discrete
inputs.
