Packet Power makes it easy to manage your monitoring network. The Ethernet Gateway automatically detects any new monitoring
devices, seamlessly adding them to the network. The monitors communicate via a mesh network routing traffic through any nearby
monitors to find the optimal path to a Gateway. This robust and resilient technology results in a wireless network that is as reliable as
a wired network but much easier to install, manage and secure. Gateways, which can each support up to 200 monitoring units, can
be added to expand capacity and provide redundancy.
