Universal Telemetry Hub (C-NODE)
The ICT International Universal Telemetry Hub (C-NODE) is a modular communications platform designed specifically for remote data collection, forming the foundation for specialised scientific and industrial monitoring networks.
The C-NODE collects and locally stores data from ICT International data loggers and LoRa Nodes, and backhauls to the cloud via Satellite (using the Iridium Short Burst Dataservice), Penta-band GSM, Cat-M1 or Ethernet.
Powered by a replaceable, solar charged, internal Lithium Ion battery, it is supplied with a 20W solar panel, anodised aluminium mounting frame and 3.8m guyed aluminium mast.
