NB-IoT RS-485 Wireless Gateway

WW-5C20 - Transform Your Wired Industrial Systems to Wireless IoT

 

Industrial IoT Made Simple

The Wintec WTC1N / WTC1C is a compact NB-IoT gateway that bridges the gap between traditional RS-485 industrial equipment and modern cloud-based monitoring systems. Transform your existing Modbus devices into wireless IoT endpoints without replacing infrastructure.

WTC1N Perfect for Retrofitting: Connect existing PLCs, energy meters, flow meters, and Modbus sensors to cloud platforms via secure NB-IoT cellular networks—no WiFi or Ethernet required.
 
WTC1C Perfect for Retrofitting: Connect existing PLCs, energy meters, flow meters, and Modbus sensors to cloud platforms via secure CAT1 LTE cellular networks—no WiFi or Ethernet required.

Ideal for: Generator monitoring via Modbus meters, cathodic protection rectifier telemetry, water/gas meter reading, industrial sensor networks, and remote PLC connectivity.

Key Features

Compact, ruggedized gateway for connecting industrial RS-485 devices to cellular IoT networks

🔌 RS-485 Modbus RTU

Native Modbus RTU support with configurable baud rates (1200-230400 bps). Connect directly to PLCs, energy meters, flow sensors, and industrial controllers without protocol conversion.

📡 NB-IoT Connectivity

Reliable cellular connectivity on Australian networks (Telstra, Optus) using NB-IoT technology. Lower cost than 4G with excellent building penetration for basement and underground installations.

📊 Analog & Digital I/O

One analog/digital input (0-10V, 0-20mA, 4-20mA) and one digital output for direct sensor connection and control. Perfect for adding simple sensors alongside Modbus devices.

💧 IP68 Waterproof

Fully sealed outdoor-rated enclosure withstands harsh environments. Deploy in pump stations, outdoor enclosures, or underground vaults with confidence.

⚡ Industrial Power Range

12-36V DC input with 5V/200mA output for powering external sensors. Wide voltage tolerance handles noisy industrial power supplies and vehicle batteries.
