Communications
Communication is a vital component of any modern control system application. Take advantage of that capability with low-priced, highly-reliable communication products such as secure VPN routers, managed/unmanaged Ethernet switches, media converters and Ethernet cables. Serial converters and gateways complete links to simpler systems that may already be in place.Click here for more info |
Industrial Communications (Ethernet and Serial)
Practical Industrial Control and Information Communications
Use AutomationDirect's industrial communication products to provide a link via phone, Ethernet or serial connection to your industrial process controllers or other devices.
- Serial products include cable kits, RS-232/422 network adapters and converters and an industrial modem.
- Industrial Ethernet products range from secure remote access, Ethernet patch cables, STRIDE® unmanaged Ethernet switches, managed Gigabit switches and Ethernet gateways to Ethernet adapter cards for your PC.
Coordinated Control
Communication links between controllers can be used to create robust, modular control systems. Sharing data between separate operations enables each local controller to better contribute to the system's overall performance. Whether separated by feet or by miles, your controllers can have access to whats going on in the environments around them.
Remote Support and Remote Access
Remotely access machines or process controllers for troubleshooting, configuring, updating or monitoring your systems. Whether its your production facility or your controller in a customers facility, having convenient and secure remote access ensures maximum production with minimal support costs.
