"OpenMTC Platform A Generic M2M Communication Platform"

March 1, 2016

Machine-2-Machine (M2M) connectivity technologies aim to enable remotely sensing, monitoring, and controlling devices by allowing diverse (real and virtual) objects to communicate with each other without the need of human intervention. In addition to routing data between objects, M2M gives the possibility to organize, trace exchanges, manage communicating objects and minimize related communication costs. M2M, Machine Type Communication (MTC), or Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the basic pillars of the Future Internet, beside the Internet of Content (IoC), and Internet of Services (IoS), enabling seamless Smart City communications and applications.

The Rise of Single Pair Ethernet in IIoT

whitePaper | May 12, 2022

Traditionally the networking architectures used within the industrial domain have been many and varied. With its established enterprise IT roots, Ethernet was always going to be the backbone network of choice to link the worlds of operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) together. However, since the arrival of Industrial IoT (IIoT), connecting all the production assets, such as sensors, actuators, robots, and the myriad of other equipment, typically involved proprietary, vendor-specific networking. The availability of single-pair Ethernet (SPE) looks set to change this legacy approach.
