Ethernet to Serial Radio Mast Equipment Application

Using Ethernet to Serial to monitor test equipment in a remote location

 

Radio Mast Connected to Brainboxes Ethernet to serial device serverRadio Masts are often in remote locations where access can be difficult. Test equipment monitors the function and status of the mast to assist engineers in maintenance and trouble shooting. This complex test equipment is directly connected to the radio mast, traditionally requiring the engineer to be on site to collect data or discover a fault. Radio masts are used for telecommunications, broadcasting and by the emergency services, so maintaining a properly functioning network of masts has safety as well as business implications.
