The Smart Wireless Gateway connects WirelessHART™ self-organizing
networks with host systems and data applications. Modbus communications
over RS-485 or Ethernet provide universal integration and system
interoperability. The optional OPC functionality from the Gateway offers a
means to connect to newer systems and applications while providing a richer
set of data.
The Smart Wireless Gateway provides industry leading security, scalability,
and data reliability. Layered security ensures that the network stays protected.
Additional devices can be added at anytime. There is no need to configure
communication paths because the Gateway manages the network
automatically. This feature also ensures that WirelessHART field devices
have the most reliable path to send data.
