December 18, 2008 - Semaphore introduced an integral, spread spectrum radio option for the T-BOX LT compact remote terminal unit (RTU) and SCADA system. T-BOX LT is ideal for decentralized applications where its push and Web technologies enable high performance, economical implementation and operation. The spread spectrum radio cost effectively extends license-free communications to T-BOX LT applications in areas lacking cellular or land line telephone coverage. The T-BOX product family is the first IP-based telemetry solution that enables complete integration of SCADA, control, and communications functionality in one rugged package. The LT model is cost effective for installations, which require up to 32 I/O points.
Like all members of the T-BOX family, T-BOX LT incorporates full Web server technology with SMS reporting and remote control to provide real-time access anytime, anywhere through a standard Web browser. Operators can receive alarms and communicate with their sites remotely using a mobile device such as a cell phone, laptop or PDA. Automatic alarm escalation allows key maintenance personnel to receive any unacknowledged alarms. Semaphore's connectivity and SCADA system products are ideal for a broad range of communications, monitoring and control applications in the broadcast / telecom, infrastructure management, oil & gas, power, transportation and water / wastewater industries.
