Communication protocols
There are many automation protocols implemented on user interfaces (RS-232, RS-485, RS-422, Ethernet) of RACOM equipment. The implementation is optimized for radio narrow band in terms of maximum throughput and for GPRS/EDGE/UMTS in terms of minimum data volume, which is charged by networks providers.
