How Industrial Gateways Solve the Problem
Many industrial facilities still rely on legacy Modbus devices for monitoring and control. These devices are reliable, stable, and often deeply integrated into existing infrastructure. However, modern building management systems, IoT platforms, and cloud applications typically require newer communication protocols such as MQTT, REST APIs, or BACnet.

Machine Downtime Monitoring
Modern facilities generate a massive amount of operational data through building management systems (BMS), industrial controllers, and IoT devices. Protocols like BACnet and Modbus continuously collect data from HVAC systems, power meters, sensors, and other critical equipment.
