ESIS is excited to announce Netcomm’s latest innovation: the NTC-500 5G Industrial IoT Router. Taking advantage of both 4G and 5G networks, this device combines Ethernet-to-Cellular and WiFi connectivity with ultra-fast data transfer rates, making it ideal for industrial applications.
Reliable communications for harsh conditions
The NTC-500 is designed to provide connectivity and reliable performance in the harshest industrial environments. The device features a wide operating temperature range from -30°C to 70°C, a rugged metal housing and multiple mounting points.
Real-time data acquisition and analytics
In the age of Industry 4.0, real-time data acquisition and analytics are key. The NTC-500 makes it possible to monitor and gather data from distant machinery in real-time, decreasing the need for expensive on-site operations. The system data analytics feature allows for predictive maintenance and optimisation of industrial processes.
Preventative maintenance and minimising downtime
The NTC-500 helps enable preventive maintenance procedures by tracking the status and behaviour of equipment. This makes it possible to carry out maintenance interventions at the right time, reducing cases of unscheduled downtime. Scheduled outages can be arranged at off-peak or low-impact times, minimising operational disruptions and the potential for financial losses.
Dynamic 5G slicing: a technological breakthrough
The NTC-500 supports Dynamic 5G Slicing. This advanced feature is unique to the NTC-500 and improves the utilisation and availability of the network by actively adjusting network priority to meet demand. The Dynamic 5G Slicing technology guarantees reliable, low latency and high-speed data transfer, which is vital for applications such as real-time monitoring and control.
Large-scale management of IoT devices
The NTC-500’s remote management features allow for the effective control and supervision of large numbers of devices, without the necessity of sending staff to multiple locations. This helps minimise operational expenses.
Diverse industrial use cases
The NTC-500’s flexibility takes it to the next level of industrial routers, making it ideal for many industrial uses. Key use cases include:
- High resolution surveillance camera systems
- Connected elevators and escalators
- Vending and ticketing machines
- Digital signage
- Critical access control systems
- Traffic lights control
- Vehicle computers and control systems
- Remote plant installations where there is no fixed line internet
