4G LTE IoT MC100 SensorBox Gateway

The MC100 SensorBox (Gateway) is equipped with interfaces for up to 8 x 2 PT100/PT1000 temperature sensors as well as a wide range of additional analogue and digital in- and outputs.

The MC100 SensorBox in combination with Node-RED™ provides a fast and easy way to communicate data from distributed sensors and actors in the field to back-end systems. Additionally the MC100 SensorBox has sufficient reserve of computing power and memory to allow for local processing of smaller tasks.
