 Telecom, Fresno, Calif., a developer of network alarm monitoring solutions, has unveiled a valuable addition to their line of high-quality RTUs. The 64-point NetGuardian 864A builds on the strength of the NetGuardian platform and has more alarm capacity than ever before.

The NetGuardian 864A is a RoHS 5/6-compliant, LAN-based, SNMP/DCPx remote telemetry telemetry

Highly automated communications process by which data are collected from instruments located at remote or inaccessible points and transmitted to receiving equipment for measurement, monitoring, display, and recording.
 unit.

The 864A doubles the alarm point capacity of the NetGuardian 832A. However, the 32-point model remains available for sites with smaller capacity needs.

The latest NetGuardian includes the same high-speed processor as the 832A G5, allowing you to process alarms faster than ever before. The advanced processor also provides considerably faster web page views.

"The NetGuardian 864A is designed for clients who need a lot of alarm inputs and advanced monitoring functionality in just 1 rack unit," said DPS president Eric Storm. "The NetGuardian also supports more processor-intense functions, which will allow you to handle advanced monitoring applications with your remote."

DPS has also extended the memory capacity of the new NetGuardian, resulting in more RAM and flash memory than any existing generation. With forthcoming firmware updates, this extra memory will allow for considerably more functionality using the extra memory space.

The first of these firmware updates for the 864A adds support for SNMPv3. SNMPv3 supports message encryption for applications where security is a must. The 864A also continues NetGuardian's longstanding support for dual SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) A widely used network monitoring and control protocol. Data are passed from SNMP agents, which are hardware and/or software processes reporting activity in each network device (hub, router, bridge, etc.  managers.

Just like NetGuardian 832A G5, the new NetGuardian 864A has all the features you have come to expect from the NetGuardian family, but it offers even more capacity. This 64-point RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) A device that collects data from data acquisition equipment and sends them to the main system over a wired or wireless network. See SCADA.  allows you to monitor 64 discrete alarms, 32 ping alarms, and 8 analog values. You also have the ability to control remote site equipment with 8 terminal server ports and 8 control relays. A wireless IP modem option (either CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) A method for transmitting simultaneous signals over a shared portion of the spectrum. The foremost application of CDMA is the digital cellular phone technology from QUALCOMM that operates in the 800 MHz band and 1.9 GHz PCS band.  or GSM / GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) The first high-speed digital data service provided by cellular carriers that used the GSM technology. GPRS added a packet-switched channel to GSM, which uses dedicated, circuit-switched channels for voice conversations. ) is also available.

Multiple alarm reporting options are, including sending alarms to multiple SNMP managers or the T/Mon NOC (Network Operations Center) A central or regional location for monitoring a large network. Also called a "network management center" (NMC), "service management center" (SMC) or "network control center" (NCC), a NOC may be used to manage a large enterprise network,  Alarm Monitoring System. The 864A reports alarms via LAN (Local Area Network) A communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area. The "clients" are the user's workstations typically running Windows, although Mac and Linux clients are also used. , serial, or dial-up connection, and it also sends automatic pager and email alarm notifications. The 864A allows you to monitor your remote site from anywhere using the NetGuardian's built-in Web Browser The program that serves as your front end to the Web on the Internet. In order to view a site, you type its address (URL) into the browser's Location field; for example, www.computerlanguage.com, and the home page of that site is downloaded to you.  Interface.

The NetGuardian 864A has all the tools you need to manage your remote sites, including built-in alarm monitoring, paging, and email capabilities.

The new RTU has support for serial baud rates up to 115,200, an additional RS-485 polling port for GLD/ECU expansion, triple CPU speed for faster processing, an optional built-in 4-port switch, an optional external temperature sensor, analog readings accurate to within 1%, dual 10/100 NICs (isolated), and SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 Trap and Inform support.
