How Do Battery Energy Storage Systems Enhance Industrial Sustainability?

A Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is, in simple terms, a container for electricity which is collected and stored with batteries. How do BESS work, how do MOXA contribute to their efficiency, and what are the broader implications for sustainability?

How MOXA and IEC 62443 Assure Cybersecurity

IEC 62443-4-2 is a standard within the IEC 62443 series, which addresses cybersecurity for Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS). Specifically, IEC 62443-4-2 defines the technical security requirements for IACS components. Given its applicability with the recent NIS2 directive, what are the key aspects of the standard and how can MOXA’s device portfolio contribute to upholding a regulatory level of cybersecurity?

Rolling stock datalogger for Siemens Rail

Spurious error messages, especially those from rolling stock subsystems, can be difficult and time consuming to diagnose. Siemens Rail, in Manchester, wished to install a datalogging system onto their rolling stock to transmit data in real-time back to their depot for efficient data analysis.

What Wi-Fi 6 brings to the Industrial Sector

We’re transitioning to the sixth iteration of what has become one the world’s most crucial and ubiquitous forms of device communication. Here we look at what Wi-Fi 6 will bring to the industrial sector.

How smart buildings are paving the way to cleaner cities

Cities across the world currently house half the population, with over 4 billion people living in urbanised areas, with projections showing that by 2050 there will be a further 2.5 billion added to that. Climate experts are quick to point out that it is not just how these people get around that needs to be addressed, it is how they live and work.

Not a normal cellular router

The term “feature-rich” doesn’t quite cut it with Advantech’s ICR-3231 cellular router, and its flexibility means nothing is out of reach for it in the IIoT space. It may sound a cliché, but with so much versatility and software-development potential, with the ICR-3231 the sky really is the limit when it comes to processing and communication in power-sensitive, IoT edge applications.
