“Ethernet” has become mainstream and has been widely used in industrial automation networks. OT engineers could use OT NMS monitor Ethernet switches, routers, etc. network devices in OT networks; however, many onsite machines and devices with serial, I/O, and other hardwired interfaces are not updated simultaneously due to high cost, which requires edge connectivity hardware, such as serial device servers, protocol gateways, or edge computers, to communicate with Ethernet infra. Thus, those edge connectivity in the field sites is currently the blind spot of OT networks.

Visualise Wireless Networks ensuring maximum uptime for your AGV and AS/RS Systems. The pandemic has fuelled e-commerce and smart factory trends that are driving a strong demand for automated material handling (AMH) systems, such as AGV and AS/RS. These systems are considered critical assets. However, an unstable wireless signal could easily disrupt their operations.

The new normal has accelerated the digital transformation of many industries and has completely changed the way we work. As a result, the demand for remote service is rising dramatically.

ECS are proud to announce that we are now an official NZ distributor for Rittal Electrical Enclosures. Rittal has continuously evolved into the world's leading systems provider for Electrical Enclosures, Power Distribution, Climate Control, and IT Infrastructure, uniting innovative productions, pioneering engineering solutions and global service to accommodate the most diverse requirements.

To keep up with changing connectivity requirements while saving you time and effort, the EDS-2000-EL Series unmanaged switches include 5- and 8-port Ethernet options, with the 5-port model only measuring 18 x 81 x 65 mm. In addition, a robust design allows you to continue to meet your demands for flexibility, reliability, and continuity.
