Energy Data Acquisition

Solution Overview

MONITOR AND ACCESS REMOTE DATA IN REAL TIME

Machine-to-Machine or data acquisition systems such as SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) are essential to reap the most benefit from your oil refineries and production facilities. Redline's innovative and rugged broadband wireless products equipped with SmartLINKSmartLINK allows machine-to-machine communication where serial port polling and time-sensitive TDM protocols are used. software are ideal for providing fiber-like connectivity for M2M applications in areas where fiber installation is cost prohibitive. With superior physical security, simple setup, rock-solid reliability, and scalable performance options, Redline provides the optimal solution for all your M2M communication needs.

Powerful Network Performance

Easily extend M2M communications across all your facilities and connect more Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) with fewer radios than the competition with Redline’s industry leading long range, highest throughput and lowest latency.

Seamless Operation

Redline’s SmartLINK software easily meets the unique challenges of transmitting critical M2M data over wireless networks. SmartLINK provides Serial Port Polling (SPP) functionality to seamlessly support existing sensors and SCADA devices when moving to an Internet protocol network, eliminating costly and time-consuming configuration changes.

Reliable Communications in Tough Environments

Provide reliable communication links over difficult topographies and in harsh industrial environments including offshore platforms and ship-to-shore operations with Redline’s rugged non-line-of-sight (NLOS) radios. Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technology minimizes the effects of fading and reflections over water and allows the use of smaller antennas for less wind load.

With a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 29 years, and a ruggedized, hardened and marine-ready design, Redline’s innovative radio technology provides uninterrupted communications. Reliable communications in tough interference conditions is assured with Redline’s advanced error correction.

Stringent Security

Redline radio platforms equipped with SecureLINK software deliver AES-256, X.509 authentication and FIPS 140-2 certification. Redline is the only broadband wireless company that meets the stringent security required by the federal government and the military. This level of security makes Redline radios the most deployed commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) broadband radios in the history of the U.S. Department of Defense.

Lowest Lifetime Costs

Redline’s small size, light weight and NLOS operation simplifies logistics and installation. Low power consumption allows radios to be powered through the Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) interface cable. The radios can also easily be powered by solar, wind or battery sources in remote locations, easing deployment and saving hundreds of dollars on installation costs.

Redline’s powerful radios, common PTP and PMP platform and high reliability combine with over-the-air (OTA) software updates to deliver the industry’s lowest lifetime cost. Purchase the bandwidth you need today and upgrade to higher bandwidth when your needs change. Realize more from your investment by adding other applications such as video surveillance with Redline’s software options. There is no need to replace hardware as your needs change.

This is why Redline is trusted by more than 150,000 customers in 130 countries.
