BoX2 can operate as a protocol converter, enabling two or more different controller devices to exchange data and achieve interoperability. Drivers for the different controllers are installed on BoX2, which converts data from one network into protocols of the network in which the data is navigating. BoX2 supports OPC UA, a secure communication protocol designed to connect ERP systems, analytic tools, databases and other enterprise systems with real-world data from controllers and other devices. Add additional smart functions to optimize overall operational performance.
