Product Description
The APsystems ECU-R Energy Communication Unit collects and transfers performance data from compatible APsystems microinverters, providing real-time visibility into the solar array. Built-in Wi-Fi and Ethernet offer flexible network connections, while ZigBee communication links the gateway to the inverters. Key features Real-time inverter and module performance monitoring. Communicates with up to 30 inverters. Integrated 802.11g/n Wi-Fi and 10/100 Mbps Ethernet. 2.4 GHz ZigBee inverter communication. Compact, fanless enclosure for indoor installation.
