Prose

M2M and IIoT

AirBox LTE has WiFi and cellular wireless interfaces to ensure maximum flexibility for industrial applications. It allows a remote access to all your devices (maintenance, control for non-critical applications, remote I/O…). Its WiFi interface, configured in access point mode, also offers local access to the network from a tablet or a smartphone. It supports all kind of Ethernet flows (video, Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, Profinet…) and its 4 GPIOs make it possible to remotely control equipment or to read the logic state of an input signal. AirBox LTE ensures the integrity of data and network thanks to its onboard services (VPN, Firewall, WPA-ENTERPRISE…).

Mobility

AirBox LTE is equipped with high-speed wireless technologies for transmitting data to and from vehicles. For bus applications, AirBox LTE makes it possible to pool all data streams (SAE, ticketing, PIS, CCTV…) on a single router. Its WiFi roaming capabilities (<30 ms) ensure continuous data transmission as buses move to the depot. Its automatic switching capabilities between WiFi and 4G ensure service continuity when they go into operation. AirBox LTE allows vehicles tracking with its GNSS feature. It is also rugged (shock and vibration proof), E-marked ECE R10 and maintenance-free.

High availability

AirBox LTE has multiple redundant interfaces (2 Ethernet ports, 2 power inputs, 2 SIM cards) and its integrated watchdog guarantee a perfect continuity of operation.

Administration and product monitoring

Can be achieved directly from a web browser or from WaveManager, the centralized administration software provided by ACKSYS. Besides, its advanced routing and filtering functions make it easy to deploy large fleets of vehicles.

This product is also available in dual WiFi interface (11n + 11ac) industrial access point version, click here to access AirBox.
