Easy Installation

The B⋮CONNECT gateway connects BÖNING ship automation system with the cloud. The gateway uses a fast LTE mobile connection (SIM card to be provided by the customer). Selected parameters of the connected system are continuously transmitted to the cloud via a secure VPN connection. The connection is established via a network interface with MODBUS-TCP protocol. Other connection protocols (MODBUS-RTU, SAE-J1939, NMEA2000, ...) could be used alternatively if the connected system does not support Ethernet connection. Due to the flexible connection, the B⋮CONNECT solution is easy to implement and an ideal choice for refit applications.

The B⋮CONNECT gateway offers a fast data connection with 3G & 4G LTE. The standard package comes with a simple rod antenna for installation inside the vessel. An outdoor antenna is optionally available. Furthermore, a high-performance version with dual SIM, multi-antenna system and extended frequency band is offered to guarantee an even better connection.

In case of a connection failure, both gateway variants buffer the data internally (up to 70 MB) to guarantee a data history without loss.
