embeNET suite is our software package being second to none when it comes to enabling high-quality wireless communication (mesh networking) and Internet connectivity for industrial and professional applications (IIoT). Our solution is based on widely recognized 6TiSCH standard – a deterministic IPv6 networking protocol, designed for applications requiring scalability and reliability. The software is embeddable into client products operating on different hardware platforms.
embeNET suite components
The embeNET suite consists of 3 software components that can be run on a variety of hardware platforms. Together they form a complete communication platform.
embeNET Node
embeNET Node, our 6TiSCH-compatible software, is an embeddable wireless communication stack that provides support for front-end hardware (sensors and RF radio transceivers) and makes all the difference. It is core to reliable mesh networking for large scale installations (1000+ nodes) with advanced routing and scalability features. Supports IPv6 and UDP with built-in security mechanisms and firmware update capabilities.
Available as a C/C++ library for ARM Cortex MCUs.
embeNET Border Router
Border router software that manages the embeNET network and connects it into the LAN or to the Internet. It allows remote configuration, management and maintenance of networked nodes as well as automated firmware updates. Runs on embedded Linux/Windows devices as well as selected microcontrollers.
Available as a Linux/Windows service or C/C++ library for bare metal MCU applications.
embeNET Portal
Web application for remote management of the embeNET networks. Allows to visualize network connections and key network metrics, configure network settings and schedule maintenance tasks, such as remote firmware update of nodes.
Technology suitable for large scale deployments
Great scalability
We use Time Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) mode of IEEE 802.15.4 to deliver self-organizing mesh network with greatly reduced collisions. This allows to build networks spanning from dozens to 1000+ nodes.
Immunity to interference
The channel hopping technique along with broken link detection and self-healing allows to minimize the impact of external interferences and multipath propagation issues.
Large range and coverage
Our solution works in sub-GHz bands allowing better signal propagation, obstacle avoidance and material penetration. Combined with multi-hop networking it leads to large effective coverage.
Standard IPv6 and UDP protocols
The network uses industry-standard IPv6 and UDP protocols for addressing and data transport. Thus it is easy to develop, test and integrate the final solution.
End-to-end security
All links use industry-standard AES encryption and there are multiple authorization schemes possible. We also provide end-to-end security between networked devices and Internet services.
Automated firmware updates
The network features a built-in service for automated large scale Over-The-Air firmware updates of field nodes, making use of multicast addressing capabilities.
