Nomus WiZ
LTE/HSDPA/EDGE/GPRS/GSM & CDMA Wireless Access Device
The NOMUS WiZ is an economical Wireless Access Device designed to provide full duplex data access for SCADA applications over the public wireless/cellular network. It supports a Serial data port or an Ethernet port to be connected to remote device such as RTUs, Data Loggers & Metering Units. The WiZ supports popular SCADA protocols such as: IEC 101 and IEC 104. It features various wireless modules to operate in a wide variety of networks: LTE/HSDPA/EDGE/GPRS/GSM & CDMA 1xRTT.
The WiZ/104 has an Ethernet port which provides connectivity to any Ethernet device including IEC 104 Remote devices for IEC 104 – 104 applications.
The WiZ/IG is a serial IEC 101 to IEC 104 Gateway for IEC 101 – 104 applications.
The Nomus WiZ supports PPP on the Wireless side with Static or Dynamic IP Addresses and PAP/CHAP Authentication. NAT is used to translate between private & public address while Port Mapping allows separation of data & management traffic. Optionally, the WiZ provides data security & authentication using IPSEC VPN & a Firewall. IPSEC also provides the convenience of working with the Dynamic IP addresses provided by the Telecom Service Provider.
The Nomus WiZ supports comprehensive management via a Serial Console. The built-in HTTP & Telnet servers accessible locally via the Ethernet port or remotely via the wireless network provide Fault, Config, Performance & Security management. ICMP ping & trace-route offer network diagnostics. All significant events are logged in an NVRAM & uploaded to designated servers via FTP periodically. The events are time-stamped with a clock derived using SNTP. A significant feature of the Nomus WiZ is the convenience of configuring using SMS from designated phone numbers as well as the convenience of receiving alerts over SMS
The Nomus WiZ is available in a variety of flavors suitable for different applications.
- Gateway WiZ/G: GSM/GPRS, Class 10, Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz
- Gateway WiZ/E: GSM/GPRS/EDGE, Class 10, Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz
- Gateway WiZ/H: GSM/GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA, with 3G support @ 2100 MHz.
- Gateway WiZ/L: GSM/GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA/LTE, with LTE support.
- Gateway WiZ/C: CDMA 1xRTT, Dual Band 800/1900 MHz
- Gateway WiZ/V: CDMA EV-DO, Dual Band 800/1900 MHz
