The ModHopper wireless Modbus/pulse transceiver from Obvius provides a self optimizing wireless interface between multiple Modbus devices and networks, perfect for submetering commercial and industrial facilities, Adding Modbus devices to any network without the need for costly communications wiring.
Modhopper is the perfect solution for connecting new or existing Modbus and pulse devices (meters, sensors, etc.) without the need for costly wiring runs, core drilling or conduit. Simply connect the Modbus devices to the serial port on the Modhopper and the transceivers will automatically detect the optimum routing to insure reliable and timely data communications. Data from each Modhopper wireless transceiver is passed from one transceiver to another to reach its ultimate destination. This self-managed mesh network means that the system will function with high reliability where other wireless systems fail due to short- or long-term interference with radio signals.
Features:

- Connect up to 128 RS 485 Modbus devices to any Modbus network
- Use “Plug and play” connectivity for supported devices to the Obvius AcquiSuite data acquisition server
- Unique “mesh” technology means optimized routing of communications with NO PC OR SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION!
