PRODUCT

The system is connected to the machine network as standard and collects data from the smart machine components via the IoT edge software. The collected data is transmitted in real-time to the part connected to the external network without physical connections through a patented technology. a4GATE has defined a unidirectional gateway, allowing only a one-way flow. It is not physically possible to go back up the data flow, working at L1 of the ISO/OSI stack. From the outside, it is not possible to access the machine network. Bidirectionality: there may be situations where you are required to enter the system from outside for authorized assistance or to transmit new configurations to the PLC. The solution has a switch that opens a  network path from external to internal, activated physically, and monitors what happens. The opening is, however, timed, with configurable intervals.
