Schneider Electric Trio Q data radios

Schneider Electric has launched the Trio Q data radios, advanced high-speed licensed digital data radios that provide both Ethernet and serial communications for the most complex and demanding applications in point-to-point and point-to-multipoint (multiple address radio) telemetry and remote SCADA systems.

The Trio Q data radios suit a wide variety of applications such as water and wastewater, oil and gas, and electrical utilities. They provide a transparent data pipeline between multiple physical sites (control centre, remote pumping station, etc), providing reliable transportation of most serial and Ethernet SCADA data protocols including MODBUS and DNP. Using private licensed spectrum ensures the user has total ownership and control of the data radio network.

Trio Q data radios are often deployed in challenging critical infrastructure data communications where: there are long distances to cover (up to 50 km); public communications (such as cellular) are too expensive, unreliable or unavailable; redundant communications technologies are mandatory; operation in licensed UHF spectrum is required; and data throughput of up to 56 Kbps is adequate.
