How does RTU connect to IoT platforms like AWS IoT, Azure IoT, and Google Cloud? What are the data transmission options?
RTU supports AWS IoT, Azure IoT, Google Cloud connectivity via MQTT, CoAP protocols with configurable transmission
RTU remote terminal units provide seamless connectivity to major IoT cloud platforms including AWS IoT Core, Microsoft Azure IoT Hub, Google Cloud IoT, and Alibaba Cloud IoT:
- MQTT protocol: SSL/TLS encrypted transmission for secure data communication
- CoAP protocol: Optimized for low-power applications and extended battery life
- HTTP/HTTPS: RESTful API compatibility for web-based applications
- TCP transparent transmission: Custom protocol support for private cloud platforms
Data transmission frequency is fully configurable: real-time monitoring (1-60 seconds), energy-saving mode (5-30 minutes), or event-triggered uploads. The EC32/EC60 series features ultra-low power consumption design with solar panel compatibility, enabling long-term operation in remote locations without grid power. Advanced features include automatic reconnection, data buffering, and edge computing capabilities for reliable IoT deployments.
