For the industrial automation are used unmanaged and managed industrial switches, wireless access points, industrial indoor and outdoor performance, media converters, industrial PoE switch, and so on.
Advance Industrial Communication into the Next Generation
For factory automation, it is necessary to have accurate realtime information of automated production-line at all times. Traditionally radio and serial connections are used for factory communications, but the integration of Ethernet and SCADA automation systems can make such communications even more effective. ORing has the right products for industrial network communications – e.g. PoE Ethernet Switch and Device Server – allowing traditional serial devices (including RS485 type) to be connected to more robust Ethernet networks. With such upgrade, factory supervisors can get real- time production data much faster and much more reliably, thanks to much higher data bandwidth along with stable and swift redundant ring backup protection. The overall result would be vastly improved work efficiency and lower costs.

Refrigerator Factory Automation
Effective Energy Management and Statistics Monitoring for Refrigerator Manufacturing Plant in
The centerpiece of this project is the energy management system that monitors, visualizes, and stores analysis data of power substations in this Bulgarian refrigerator manufacturing plant. To ensure swift, reliable and uninterrupted information traffic of such important data in tough environments, ORing's unmanaged IES-150B Ethernet switches are used. Additionally, some of the substations are in the remote area, where the implementation of wired networks would be tedious and costly. The use of ORing's IAP-W512 long-range wireless weatherproof access points effectively solves this problem by providing IEEE 802.11a wireless network connection with RADIUS authentication, allowing secure wireless network extension to these remote substations.

Automation System in India
Background Introduction
Location: Pune & Jamshedpur
Project Name: TATA Motors Wireless Application for Firing Engine Test Bed Machine
Number of devices deployed: 6
Products deployed: IAP-6701-WG+ & IDS-5042-WG
Due to the need for outdoor operation, the ORing IAP-6701-WG+ outdoor IEEE 802.11 b/g wireless AP was chosen because its IP-67 casing ensures a waterproof, dust-tight connection. Another reason why the IAP-6701-WG+ was picked is its support for various security methods such as encryption, MAC filter, and password protection. The IAP-6701-WG+ enables the staff at different field sites to download programs from the control room while transmitting test results back to the control center in a secure manner.
Project Requirement:
- Wireless connections for unhampered and long-distance communications
- Reliable operation in outdoor environments
- Easy and central management capabilities
How to Connect with ORing Product?
One of the IAP-6701-WG+ is connected to the ORing device server, IDS-5042-WG, on the remote site and the other is installed at the control site to facilitate communications between the test fields and the control center. Each firing test engine at remote side was deployed one IDS-5042-WG to collect data. All of collected data from IDS-5042-WG would be delivered to AP. The AP at each factory was installed on a pole so that signals can be transmitted smoothly without being influenced by the obstacles on the ground. Since the IAP-6701-WG+ is equipped with a PoE P.D. port, there is no need to install additional power cables for the AP. Operators at different test sites are able to receive commands and any changes made by the control room simultaneously to keep the tests in sync. Control room staff can also monitor the tests and acquire test results immediately to make necessary adjustment immediately.
IAP-6701-WG+ is EOL soon. The replacement model is IAP-W520+/W522+.
