Reliable and Rugged Communication Device for Smart Grid and Industrial Applications with DCU features
This secure and robust device is designed to meet the highest cybersecurity standards for industrial and utility applications. Featuring an Ethernet port, a cellular module, and a compact industrial design, it is available with LTE Cat.1 or LTE Cat.M/Cat.NB modules that provide enhanced coverage and reliability.
The M2M Industrial Router 2 DCU has been developed specifically for utilities, ensuring secure and reliable communication in substations, transformer stations, and grid control centers. To meet the stringent security requirements of the European Network for Cyber Security (ENCS), the device has undergone a complete redesign, achieving full ENCS certification.
Key security features include:
The router is designed for seamless integration into various industrial M2M and IoT applications, including Automated Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and industrial automation. It is the preferred choice for securing critical infrastructure, trusted by major European utilities.
Substations are a critical component of the power grid, requiring reliable and secure communication between field devices and control centers. The M2M Industrial Router 2 DCU ensures real-time, encrypted data transmission between protection relays, RTUs, and SCADA systems. Its ruggedized design and secure remote management capabilities make it ideal for use in harsh substation environments, ensuring seamless operation and protection against cyber threats.
The data concentrator can read registers of connected PLCs and sensors on RS485 or RS232 (via Modbus RTU), on Ethernet (via Modbus TCP), and transmit data to the center via the MQTT protocol, providing a cost-effective solution for industrial automation and smart grid connectivity.
To streamline deployment, the router can be pre-configured at the factory according to customer specifications. This ensures that devices are ready for immediate use upon installation, reducing setup time and minimizing configuration errors.
The router is fully manageable through our state-of-the-art Device Manager® platform, a sophisticated Network Management Tool (NMT) that provides real-time monitoring, secure OTA firmware updates, and mass deployment capabilities.
Additionally, support for Node-Red applications allows users to create custom automation workflows without complex programming. This simplifies data processing, protocol conversions, and system integrations for industrial and utility applications.
The product has been rigorously tested and certified by the European Network for Cyber Security (ENCS), a non-profit organization owned by leading grid operators (DSOs and TSOs) dedicated to improving cybersecurity across the EU.
These advanced industrial routers establish a robust electronic security perimeter, safeguarding critical cyber assets across multiple industries. From substations in power grids and pump-and-treat systems in water facilities to distributed control systems in oil and gas and PLC/SCADA systems in factory automation, this solution delivers the highest level of security and reliability for mission-critical environments.
This device delivers the reliability, security, and flexibility required for the evolving demands of modern industrial and utility networks.
