What is Offline data collection with 'HUBBOX Connect X1 and X2 Series'?

EDGE COMPUTING NODE-RED ZERO DATA LOSS

The digitalization of data in production facilities is a critical milestone. Today, however, many machines lack the intelligence to decide "what to store" or "when to transmit" if the network connection drops while sending data to the cloud. The HUBBOX Edge Computing infrastructure secures your production lines with its "Offline Data Collect" feature, completely preventing data loss during network outages.

Transitioning from Manual Records to Edge Intelligence

We have moved from an era of operators manually filling out forms to the Industry 4.0 age, where sensors generate thousands of data points per second. However, momentary interruptions in the network infrastructure lead to the loss of this critical data. The Data Collect system developed by HUBBOX buffers critical data locally at the Edge until the connection is restored, and then transmits it to the center with timestamps completely and chronologically.

Traditional Gateways: Data flow stops when the internet or local network drops. Even if the machine continues to operate, the critical data generated at that moment (temperature, pressure, fault logs) is permanently lost.

HUBBOX X1 and X2 Edge Routers: When the network drops, the device detects the status and buffers the data securely within its internal memory. Once the network is back, it transfers the data sequentially to the IT cloud or SCADA. (Zero Data Loss)

Intelligent Hardware Powered by Node-RED: Connect X1 and X2

HUBBOX devices are not just bridges that transfer data; they are "Edge Computing" hubs capable of making intelligent decisions directly on the factory floor.

HUBBOX Connect X1: Uninterrupted Flow Designed for machine manufacturers (OEMs), the X1 provides offline data collection security with its core "Store-and-Forward" capabilities, alongside a robust VPN infrastructure.

HUBBOX X2 & Node-RED Integration The X2 series operates with a drag-and-drop logic thanks to its embedded Node-RED infrastructure. It reduces cloud costs by deciding which data to filter and which to transmit urgently right at the Edge level.

Advanced Edge Capability: Thanks to the Node-RED architecture, the HUBBOX Connect X2 not only protects data during network outages but also filters out meaningless data clusters (Noise) during normal operations, sending only valuable data to the cloud. This saves up to 70% in bandwidth costs.
