What is MeshWorx?
MeshWorx is a solution that revolutionizes Asset Monitoring. Deploy low-power beacons across multiple locations to capture real-time data on asset parameters like temperature and location. Store and access data securely in the Thingsboard platform from anywhere with an internet connection. No wires needed means no more costly installations.
Mesh Network
Anchors can communicate with each other to transmit data from sensors to the main gateway. A multitude of anchors and gateways can be configured to work with a single gateway, which is beneficial because all anchors and sensors run on battery power. As a result, expensive installations to power and network cables in your manufacturing space are no longer required. Anchors and sensors can be easily attached to assets or walls using adhesive or screws. Anchors can last up to 10 years in the appropriate environment, while sensors can last up to 2 or 3 years. Additionally, batteries are replaceable.
The key benefits of using MeshWorx
Self healing - The ability to create a self-healing and self-optimizing network. If a device fails or is removed from the network, the other devices can automatically reroute the data through other available nodes, ensuring that data is still transmitted without interruption. This makes mesh networks in the IIoT more resilient and reliable than traditional wireless networks.
Scalability - Another benefit of mesh networks in the IIoT is the ability to extend the range of the network by adding more nodes. This makes it possible to cover larger areas without the need for additional infrastructure, such as access points or repeaters.
