Korenix JetBox 9300 compact ruggedized computers have been used by a Power Distribution Company in Russia for building a reliable and cost-efficient SCADA system. The multiple interfaces of the intelligent networking computer along with its Linux capability allowed performing various data communication and remote control, while the supported Modbus2SNMP gateway ensured easy and flexible system management. Featuring rugged anti-shock/vibration design combined with -25~70oC wide operating temperature range, JetBox 9300 became a perfect solution to integrate in a SCADA system under heavy substation environments.

Over 150 JetBox 9300 industrial embedded computers have been used as a base of a data acquisition system from main substation plant assets. By integrating rich interface of LAN, DIO, serial ports into compact boxes, the computers were easily stored in small spaces for performing multiple data connectivity, such as data collection from various networking equipment, PLCs, signal and digital controlling devices, saving physical media costs. All the data was stored on the SD card and sent to the system through the Ethernet ports.
 To easily and efficiently manage the network, the supported Modbus2SNMP function was used. The JetBox 9300 computer worked as a Modbus to SNMP gateway, allowing engineers to check and modify the process in local sites through Modbus protocol, while IT staff in central sites (control rooms) benefitted from SNMP to get device data and do network management. The ultra reliable RISC processor provided stability and reliability required for real-time utility control.
To develop programmable front-end controller applications, the JetBox 9300 also provided Linux SDK. With Korenix Auto-Run customization setting on SD card, users were capable to configure their own Linux commands and automatically run specific applications making the network management easier and more flexible.
Using their ruggedized fan-less design, -25~70°C wide operating temperature, the JetBox 9300 series provided stable, reliable and efficient communication under the most severe environmental conditions becoming a perfectly fitted data gateway system for the power substation SCADA systems.
