Designed as a radio network access point, either working as a Network Master attached to a controller or as an End Point affixed to a Site Asset, the Gamma Port Link allows remote connectivity of Assets such as Meters and Inverters over long distances without the need for cables. With a key goal of making this device as simple as possible to install and support, the Gamma Port Link requires no device-level configuration, with network connectivity and routing as well as all port-parameters being configured either autonomously or remotely.
Fully compatible with the next generation gamma-mesh® Organic Radio network supporting a longer range with up to 1000 devices.
Supports either a proprietary Gamma Interface (USB-C) or a MODBUS-RTU Interface (RS-485) to configure and communicate over the Network making it ideal for use in both Edge computing applications with large diverse networks or as a cable replacement for simpler PLC-based applications.
Can be used with dedicated or communal networks using multiple IoT gateways for full redundancy when connected to a single controller residing in the Cloud.

Note: This Device supports an RF MESH network typology compliant to ACMA and FCC rules for 915 MHs ISM bands CFR 15.247 to reduce interference with adjacent systems sharing the same band.
This device is designed to only operate within the voltage limits defined above. CONNECTION TO VOLTAGE SOURCES OUTSIDE OF THOSE SPECIFIED FOR RESPECTIVE TERMINALS MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND/OR CREATE A RISK OF FIRE.
This device is intended as a communications device for non-critical applications only as it uses unlicensed radio bands that may be subject to regular interference from adjacent networks sharing the same band. AS SUCH THIS DEVICE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN MISSION CRITICAL APPLICATIONS WHERE FAILURE TO OPERATE CORRECTLY IN ANY WAY MAY CAUSE DAMAGE AND/OR INJURY TO PERSONS, PROPERTY OR THE ENVIRONMENT. ANY SUCH USE IS DONE SO AT THE OPERATORS OWN RISK.
There is no guarantee that interference to other devices and networks will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception or to any other device or network, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
The placement of the Antenna is vital to the operation and safety of the device. Please refer to the Antenna Installation Guide, see JISSE00303-0301, for more information.
