Companies collaborate to develop IIoT wireless connectivity
Advantech, Behr Technologies (BTI), Hitachi Solutions America, and Microsoft today announced that the companies are collaborating to deliver wireless communications systems with unmatched scalability, reliability, and security for private industrial internet of things (IIoT) networks. Since no single technology provider can enable IIoT alone, this joint effort will provide the first mass-market, end-to-end wireless gateway system to ensure connectivity with sensors for production-level industrial and commercial applications. The system will deliver large scalability, the deepest possible building penetration, integration and interoperability with legacy systems, along with very long battery life for nodes.
