SiteGate
SiteGate is a secure network appliance that is installed at remote sites to provide a secure gateway connection to deployed devices (batteries, generators, HVAC, microwave, etc.). Devices are connected to SiteGate which provides a smart firewall. SiteGate protects the network while simultaneously gathering vital information from all connected devices.
Increased Security
- Firewall security of all deployed venue devices to protect private internal network and prevent unnecessary network configuration changes
- SiteGate provides full access look and feel to outside network device web interface via a secure environment on SiteGate
- SiteGate polls outside plant devices which is accessed by SitePortal® – no pass-through to outside plant devices
- Easier to upgrade SiteGate for security purposes as opposed to each individual sub-devices
Access Control
- Remote
- Control access via multiple user accounts so only certain devices can be seen/accessed
- Limit functionality based on user roles
- Site
- Control which users have access at the site
IP Address Advantages
- One IP address required for all monitored devices at the site/venue without a need for port forwarding
- Ability to convert multiple IPv4 and/or IPv6 devices into a single IPv6
More Efficient Updates
- Reduce network bandwidth by only reporting changes while extracting more alarms, properties and other updates from your devices
- Receive updates faster between SiteGate and the deployed devices to detect changes and gather information for the primary SitePortal® server instead of waiting for longer poll intervals
