Advantech is a global leader in industrial communication, industrial Ethernet managed/unmanaged switches, data acquisition (DAQ), industrial computer and control products which are widely used in laboratory and industrial automation applications such as: monitoring, motion control, data acquisition (DAQ), and automated testing.
Advanced Ethernet Solutions
Advantech’s Advanced Ethernet Solution provides the latest- generation Gigabit port Industrial Ethernet Switches from copper to fiber optic, and Power over Ethernet. Advantech’s managed Industrial Ethernet Switches incorporate X-Ring+ technology that offers the fastest redundant ring recovery time (<10ms) to increase the reliability and speed of network infrastructures. Furthermore, the robust design, wide working temperature range, DIN-rail, and redundant power inputs make our products suitable for rugged industrial applications.
Industrial Ethernet Solutions
Advantech’s industrial Ethernet solution provides Ethernet Switches and Ethernet Converters (Ethernet Adapters), varying from Fast Ethernet to Gigabit port switches; from copper to fiber optic, and Power over Ethernet. Advantech’s managed Ethernet switches incorporate X-Ring technology that offers the fastest redundant ring recovery time (<20ms). Furthermore, the robust design, wide temperature, DIN-rail, and 12~48 VDC redundant power inputs make our products suitable for rugged industrial applications. With energy saving design, Advantech offers more efficient gigabit port switch, optic converter and RJ54 converter to meet your concern.
Industrial Wireles Solutions
Advantech’s industrial wireless solutions cover cost effective entry level wireless AP’s/CPE’s to high end multiple function Mesh AP/Stations. To fulfill the needs and cover all types of applications, we design these industrial wireless products with AP’s/CPE’s and different frequency configurations from fixed 2.4GHz and 5GHz to a selectable 2.4 or 5 GHz. For Mesh AP/Stations series, we also provide up to 2 and 3 radio models in a single device for redundancy purposes.
Serial Device Servers
Advantech’s Serial Device Servers, programmable device servers and Modbus gateways are easy to install and configure, support wired and wireless networking and provide various operation modes to satisfy rigorous industrial automation needs. EKI-1000 Serial Device Servers enable RS-232/422/485 serial devices to be dual-connected to Ethernet switches for unrivaled reliability. Product line covers wired and wireless (WLAN, GPRS, 3G) serial device server, Modbus gateway, and programmable device server.
Serial Communication Cards
Advantech’s Serial Communication Cards with industrial-grade certification are designed for field devices to accommodate multiple high performance peripherals that use the RS-232/422/485 serial communication protocol. Each serial communication card requires only one PCI or ISA slot to provide independent serial channels. With industrial-grade protection, Advantech provides field devices with multiport serial cards help to avoid system damage in harsh environments.
Serial Converter and Repeaters
Serial Media Converter and Repeaters provide conversion between serial networks and other media. Our Serial Media Converter can transparently convert RS-232 signals to RS-422/485 signals, as well as wireless and fiber optic signals. Most industrial computer systems come with standard RS-232 serial ports. Though widely accepted, RS-232 has limited transmission speed, range and networking capabilities. The RS-422/485 standards overcome these limitations by using differential voltage lines for data and control signals.
