SPE: The new Ethernet standard for building technology and Industry 4.0 Single Pair Ethernet – or “SPE” for short – is the new, much sought-after Ethernet standard for digitalized industry and the Internet of Things. And SPE also offers exciting prospects for building technology: Because SPE promises unhindered communication between two areas which have so […]
Can you imagine retrofitting sensors in your system, capturing signals for further processing, connecting self-contained systems to each other or incorporating additional actuators? No problem! And if needed W&T can also implement monitoring and recording of data points, creating application-specific visualisations or sending alarms for defined events. In addition they offer the ability to link […]
Integrating signals with Modbus-TCP, OPC UA/DA, REST or MQTT Automation technology in industry most often involves hardware components from many different manufacturers combined in a common system. It used to be that the data exchange needed for such systems was handled by many different fieldbus systems. Even before the advent of Industry 4.0 there has […]
Device failure or network fault creates alarm. The new IP Watcher lets you monitor up to 100 network nodes and IP addresses. Should a device not respond or the IP address can no longer be reached, the new IP Watcher issues an alarm. The IP Watcher sends an email or switching alarm devices such […]
The requirements for IT security are continually increasing in industry. Yet at the same time we often see a lack of personnel resources for implementing this security. The IT security products from W&T are designed for straightforward implementation of concrete security requirements. As a basic measure for many IT security concepts the W&T micro-firewalls isolate […]
Com-Servers and USB-Servers are in a class of their own because in contrast to many commercially available serial device servers and USB device servers they are not simply a power-saving computer with a piece of rather complicated software, but rather “contain” a service which is vital for any critical use: As long as there are […]
