How it works

From the RS485 bus to the cloud — wirelessly.

Connect your Modbus RTU devices to the screw terminals. The MDIM-485/WL exposes them over WiFi as Modbus TCP and publishes register values to your MQTT broker. SCADA, cloud dashboards, and edge apps all see the same live data.

Wireless reach

Skip the conduit. Skip the trenching.

2.4 GHz 802.11 a/b/g/n radio with up to 100 m line-of-sight range. Retrofit existing buildings, monitor distributed solar farms, or relocate equipment without rerouting cables. Use Ethernet and WiFi together for failover when uptime matters.

Where it fits

Anywhere RS485 can't reach a cable.

Industrial Automation

Wireless link from PLCs, VFDs, and controllers to SCADA — useful where pulling cable is expensive or impossible.

Building Automation

Retrofit HVAC, energy meters, and BMS controllers without disrupting operations or running new conduit.

Solar & Energy

Pull data from inverters, BMS, and energy meters across large solar farms — no field cabling required.

Water & Environmental

Wireless sensor networks for tank levels, water quality, and pump control with real-time MQTT alerts.

Transportation & Infra

Monitor traffic controllers, signaling, and tunnel ventilation across distributed infrastructure sites.

Smart Agriculture

Connect irrigation controllers, soil sensors, and greenhouse automation for mobile-friendly remote control.
