RTU with spread spectrum radio

Semaphore has introduced an integral spread spectrum radio option for the T-box LT compact remote terminal unit (RTU) and SCADA system.

T-box LT is suitable for decentralised applications where its push and web technologies enable high performance and economical implementation and operation. The spread spectrum radio cost-effectively extends licence-free communications to T-box LT applications in areas lacking cellular or landline telephone coverage.

The T-box product family is an IP-based telemetry solution that enables complete integration of SCADA, control and communications functionality in one rugged package. The LT model is cost effective for installations which require up to 32 I/O points.

T-box LT incorporates full web server technology with SMS reporting and remote control to provide real-time access anytime, anywhere through a standard web browser. Operators can receive alarms and communicate with their sites remotely using a mobile device such as a cell phone, laptop or PDA. Automatic alarm escalation allows key maintenance personnel to receive any unacknowledged alarms.
