Sierra Wireless RV55 Enables Field IoT Capabilities

Mobile computing connects mobile workforces with valuable communication systems. Police officers use mobile computers to conduct criminal background checks, and field utility workers use computers to diagnose and repair electrical, cable, and fiber-optic networks. All of these mobile workforces need reliable internet and cellular communications to do their job. 

The RV55 is a rugged, compact router designed for harsh environments. The Internet of Things (IoT) connects monitoring devices used in field operations with computer systems. IoT requires reliable, wireless communications, and the AirLink® RV55 utilizes ruggedized mobile connectivity. It features ultra-low power consumption and is a perfect solution for solar or battery-powered installations. Sierra Wireless provides additional services, including the AirLink® Complete subscription service through the AirLink® Management Service (ALMS) technical support and warranty services, including reliable connection through the Sierra wireless RV55 antenna. The ALMS offers a secure cloud-based solution that includes over-the-air registration and software updates. Security is a priority for the RV55 product line protecting the routers supporting IPsec, GRE, and OpenVPN clients with up to 5 concurrent tunnels. Better yet, the AirLink® R55 price is reasonable and remains accessible for a wide variety of users.

AirLink® RV55 Powers SCADA Monitoring and GNSS Geographic Location Services

Power plants, water systems, and electrical utilities depend on remote SCADA monitoring and GNSS location services to monitor municipal services. For example, remote water-level meters monitor river levels during tropical storms and periods of heavy rains. The remote monitors need to transmit data back to the central systems on a 24/7/365 basis. The RV55 is a lightweight, rugged router providing reliable network connectivity required for this vital job. It supports multiple communication methods (LTE, Wi-Fi) and GNSS navigation protocols.

Agriculture users also depend on the RV55 to provide communications for heavy equipment, tractors, and combines. Equipment manufacturers rely on Wi-Fi and LTE communications to connect mobile computing and onboard monitoring equipment.
