RTICG™ Intelligent Communication Gateway
Monitor, acquire, and concentrate data from multiple field and substation devices, and serve it to external systems. RTICG™ software offers protocol conversion and intelligent management of communication bandwidth, maximizing throughput for real-time SCADA control.
Product Features
- Data concentration
Acquire data from multiple devices and concentrate it into one or more slave devices. - Protocol conversion
Seamlessly mix field devices from different manufacturers using multiple protocols. - External system support
Combine data into slave devices to serve it to external systems on multiple communication channels. -
Intelligent communication management
Maximize throughput with intelligent management of serial and TCP/IP communication channels. -
Gridstream* integration
Increase data throughput with the computing power of the Gridstream* RF (Utilinet*) network. - Time-tagged data
Acquire time-tagged data or add time tags as needed. - Interoperability
Interconnect multiple RTICG units to create a secure data acquisition and transportation platform that is fully NERC CIP-compliant. - Remote management
Configure, administer, and monitor one or more RTICG units from a central location.
RTICG software runs on standard, Windows*-based servers or hardened systems available from many manufacturers. It is a member of the RTscada™ family of products, which interoperate to power the Smart Grid—from field device to substation to control center—and integrate seamlessly with all enterprise systems.
