ELPRO Technologies DS-EL-415U-2-Cx Wireless Ethernet Gateway

415U-E-Cx wireless Ethernet gateway
Condor series long-range high-speed industrial wireless Ethernet

Description

ELPRO’s industrial wireless solutions have 30 years plus of expertise in solving critical industrial applications through our extensive knowledge in wireless I/O, modem and gateway applications. The 415U-E-Cx extends communications to sensors in local, remote, and difficult-to-reach locations.
Designed with the Condor series long-range, high data speed wireless transceiver which supports Ethernet based protocol over the air and gives the 415U-E-Cx the power and flexibility to perform reliably in sprawling harsh industrial environments.
Secure. AES encryption, advanced IP filtering, multilevel authentication, user access and change event logging features provide the user with the tools to ensure the highest level of data integrity and protection against malicious attacks.
Flexible. Ethernet native support provides solutions to connectivity challenges today and in the future. The ELPRO 415U-E-Cx also provides Ethernet and serial gateway support for industrial protocols including Modbus TCP/RTU and DNP3 I/O, MQTT +SparkplugB.
Reliable. The Condor series 415U-E-Cx ProMesh™ operates reliably with the challenges of obstructed paths by using automatic path selection and frequency agility to allow the communications network to adapt to changes easily with redundancy.
