The REFCON Portable Modem is a simple solution to solve a complex problem in the refrigerated container industry. Visibility is key to ensuring the wellbeing of the refrigerated containers and its cargo but on vessels or terminals today this visibility at best limited, leading to undiscovered alarms, incorrect setpoints etc. which is driving the need for a nonoptimal time-consuming manual process for monitoring the refrigerated containers to ensure the safety of the cargo. The REFCON Portable Modem connects easily to any refrigerated container in the market today directly to the log retrieval plug or with an extension cable depending on the application from here all data is wirelessly sent to REFCON where the data and alarms can be processed by the crew. The REFCON Portable Modem can also be used in an application where infrastructure is unavailable which could be on short-term charter vessels or on peak season storage areas on terminals in these cases the REFCON Mobile app can be used together with an Android device by the crew to fast and automatically collect data and alarms for a flexible monitoring solution. At Emerson data security is always a top priority and the REFCON Portable Modem solution is no exception, which is one of the reasons why we chose the newest Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0 as the wireless interface given its high-security standards and to ensure the highest data security the Portable Modem is also equipped with unique burned in X509 keys for additional protection against external threats.
