Self-service Coffee Machine Networking Solution
With the development of smart retail, self-service coffee machines are becoming increasingly popular in cities. In order to ensure the normal operation of coffee machines, it is necessary to ensure a stable and reliable network connection to update the raw material inventory status in real time and upload on-site video monitoring to the operation center. To ensure the security of customers’payment information, service providers must provide a reliable network connection to ensure the security of sensitive information during data transmission. As there are many self-service coffee machines deployed in different locations, mechanical failures may occur, which may lead to the inability to dispense coffee. To minimize downtime, maintenance personnel need to receive timely and accurate fault alerts. Therefore, providing reliable fault monitoring and timely maintenance services is essential.
Solution
The self-service coffee machine is connected to the Ethernet port of the Robustel IIoT Gateway via a network cable. The gateway establishes a data transmission channel between the vending machine and the RCMS platform through 4G LTE cellular network, and establishes an encrypted transmission channel for the self-service coffee machine and payment platform through routing policies, VPN and other functions, to ensure the safe and reliable operation of self-service retail business.
- Stable Connection
Robustel IIoT Gateway provides various networking methods including cellular, Wi-Fi and wired, combined with the link management function provided by RobustOS, it provides uninterrupted data transmission channels for various networking scenarios. - Information Encryption
RobustOS supports multiple VPN protocols such as OpenVPN and IPSec, and establishes VPN encrypted tunnels with the data center securely through comprehensive security policies, ensuring the security of information transmission. - Remote Operation and Maintenance
Robustel’s self-developed RCMS device management platform provides convenient and fast real-time monitoring, remote diagnosis and other services, enabling maintenance personnel to complete equipment maintenance work without visiting the site.
Digital Signage Networking Solutions
Traditional media advertising operators usually use wired networks and manual replacement of advertising storage devices, facing high line maintenance costs and human resource consumption. With the development of urbanization, digital signages have been everywhere in the city, but their scattered locations make it difficult for administrators to accurately diagnose faults remotely. Long-term uninterrupted operation will shorten the service life of digital signages and increase energy consumption, so remote control of equipment to turn on and off is needed to save energy and extend their service life. For the best advertising display effect, digital signages need frequent content management, so reliable connectivity is crucial for advertising management.
Solution
The digital signages are connected to the Robustel IIoT Gateway through Ethernet cables. The router establishes a connection between the digital signages and the data center via the 4G LTE cellular network, and the data center pushes advertisements to the digital signages as needed. The RCMS device management platform allows for remote management of the digital signages.
- High Speed Connectivity
Robustel Edge Computing Gateway provides multiple connectivity options such as 5G/4G/3G cellular network, Wi-Fi, and wired connections,combined with the link management function provided by RobustOS Pro, it provides uninterrupted high-speed data transmission channels for various networking scenarios. - Security and Reliablility
RobustOS (IoT gateway operating system) has passed the penetration testing by Nettitude, awell-known global information security laboratory, avoiding network attacks on signages. - Remote Management
Administrators can intuitively monitor the operation status of digital signages through the RCMS management platform, and remotely control the on-off status of digital signages through web-based operations without the need to be on-site.
Bank ATM Machine Networking Solution
ATM machines are widely deployed in various corners of the world, with some being located in remote areas where wired networks are not suitable for connectivity. As banking operations require strong real-time performance, deploying stable and reliable wireless network connections becomes the optimal networking choice for ATM machines in edge regions. In some areas, ATM equipment is outdated, and the existing network connectivity no longer meets the new standards for data rates and security, and ATM hardware updates are costly. Therefore, banks need to find a wireless networking solution that can achieve high speed, low cost, and high security.
Solution
The ATM machine is connected to the Robustel IIoT Gateway through a network cable, while the router is connected to the Internet through 4G LTE network, and establishes a secure data transmission tunnel through VPN with the bank’s central system, forming a virtual LAN. The ATM machine is able to communicate securely with the bank’s central system server.
