ProSoft Connect: Remote Access To Control Equipment From Anywhere

What if your support personnel could easily and securely access your remote control equipment anywhere in the world? Prosoft Technology's Remote Access solution (Prosoft Connect) lets your PC work as if it were directly connected to a switch on a remote network, allowing you to monitor and edit your control equipment.

ProSoft Connect is a secure, cloud-based service optimized for highly reliable performance. ProSoft Connect allows you to communicate with your machines anywhere in the world. With Connect's unique EasyBridge technology, your automation programming tools (such as Studio 5000, Unity Pro, TIA Portal, and more) can communicate directly with remote participants without the need for IP routing or other complicated communication settings. 

EasyBridge allows you to connect as if you were connected to the local switch. Connect uses standard security protocols such as HTTPS and IPsec to ensure that your system is protected at all times. 

There are two product currently support Prosoft Connects: ICX35-HWC and PLX35-NB2. These module can also be monitored through ProSoft Connect, and can be accessed anywhere in the world, offering the user an intuitive Web interface from which they can monitor their automation devices in real time.

Mobile Communications Solution ICX35-HWC

The Industrial Cellular Gateway ICX35-HWC provides secure wireless Ethernet and serial connectivity to remote devices via the 4G LTE mobile phone service with fallback to 3G. These devices include PAC / PLC, RTU, DCS systems, instruments, electronic billboards and radio masts. Remote devices can be accessed using secure VPN tunnels over Internet connections. 

The ICX35-HWC is ideal for programming and maintaining remote devices, remote data acquisition, and SCADA and M2M (machine-to-machine) applications. 

It works in LTE / GSM networks with a single device. 

LAN Variant PLX35-NB2

The PLX35-NB2 is the ideal solution for system integrators and machine builders who require remote access for installation, troubleshooting, and maintenance. As soon as a network bridge is installed and a ProSoft Connect account has been created, you have the option of controlling your automation devices from outside, thus avoiding travel expenses. Remote access is provided through ProSoft Connect - our secure, cloud-based platform for Industry 4.0.
