What is the Industrial Internet of Things?
IIoT, short for Industrial Internet of Things, brings IoT into the industrial setting. Picture factories and other big industrial setups getting equipped with smart sensors and software to collect and share data, with the aim of boosting operational efficiency. IIoT relies on connectivity options like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to transmit data, while also utilising advanced tools such as data analysis and machine learning to extract actionable insights. This integration is especially crucial in sectors like manufacturing and energy, where IIoT enables predictive maintenance and optimises operational processes, leading to enhanced efficiency and safety standards.
Whether its the powerful capabilities of Siemens Insights Hub, or the more focused abilities of NodeLinx EPM, we'll support you to find the right IIoT solution for your business.
