Intended Use
The rCell 300 is designed for a variety of industrial and IoT applications. Some of its intended uses include:
- Remote monitoring and control: This device is ideal for remote monitoring and control of equipment and systems in industries such as oil and gas, utilities, and agriculture. The rCell 300 allows for real-time data collection and management of remote locations.
- Smart cities and infrastructure: This device can be used in smart-city applications, including traffic management, environmental monitoring, and electric vehicle charging stations.
- Industrial automation: This device works with current industrial automation equipment (such as RTU) for remote data collection, fault notifications, control/manage field equipment.
The rCell 300 can be used in applications that require equipment to operate in harsh environments. For outdoor deployments, the rCell 300 must be installed in a waterproof enclosure.
