Cellular Connectivity Products and Services
Banner cellular modems, data plans, and connectivity services eliminate the complications and delays of dealing directly with a wireless carrier for your IIoT solution’s cellular connectivity. These offerings complement Banner’s full portfolio of wireless products, making it easy to implement end-to-end IIoT solutions.
To get started, choose an SXI modem for your DXM Controller that best matches the carrier and region for the intended deployment. Then navigate to the Banner Cell Data activation portal to select a data plan for your device, and complete the activation onto the cellular network. If desired, choose a Banner Cloud Data Services package to collect data for visualization, trending analysis, and alerting that delivers immediate value.
Key Benefits
Complete IIoT Solutions from One Source
Banner offers a broad range of wireless hardware, software, and supporting tools that make it easy to create, deploy, and manage complete, end-to-end IIoT solutions. They begin with Banner sensors and other field devices that gather the data, and it extends to our Cloud Data Services (CDS) software. CDS is a powerful tool that enables users to visualize data and make it more actionable. The purchase of an SXI modem and DXM Controller is required to obtain connectivity to the cellular network. The introduction of cellular data plans further simplifies and streamlines the process by providing users with a one-stop shop for their entire solution.
Hassle-Free Connectivity
Cellular Data Plans from Banner are designed to meet the unique needs of IIoT applications and the people who support them. Our automated platform makes it easy to choose, activate, and manage your plan. Plans provide 4G LTE coverage and range from 50 MB to 1 GB per month. Payments are transacted monthly via credit card, allowing for immediate service without quotas, contracts, or additional commitments. There are no setup or cancellation fees, and plans can be activated or changed at any time. Visit celldata.bannercds.com to get started.
