IIOVT Technology Bridges IT and OT, Paving the Way for Industry 4.0


Click me for Chinese Version

IIOVT, or Industrial IO Virtualization Technology, is a collaborative development by Millitronic and Innodisk. In essence, it serves as a bridge between IT (Information Technology) and OT (Operational Technology).

Driving Innovation in OT Device Integration in the AIOT Era

With the advent of the AIOT era, many OT-related devices require data transmission to IT servers through field Network Switches for further data aggregation. However, constrained by Network Switch interfaces, backend devices are limited to using RJ45 interface-related products. As OT devices become more diverse, practical applications face the challenge of integrating various industrial interfaces, such as high-resolution multifunction USB cameras, USB touch signals, USB devices, HDMI, CANbus, COM ports, RS232, RS422, RS485, and more.

Seamless Connection between Field Devices and Servers

The IIOVT technology emerges to address this need, seamlessly connecting field devices with servers by interfacing with the server's computing center. Whether it's USB, HDMI, COM, or CANBUS signals, bidirectional remote access can be achieved through network cables or WiFi. The IIOVT product series includes LAN to CANBUS, LAN to USB/HDMI, LAN to COM, and others, catering to various application requirements.

Effortless Remote Access

Before the advent of IIOVT technology, remote access to multiple computers required connecting the host to a KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) switch. This involved connecting the KVM transmitter and receiver via the network and manually controlling the KVM switch to switch between hosts. With the integration of IIOVT technology, remote access eliminates cumbersome connection procedures. Users can easily switch between different remote hosts using a touch screen, significantly reducing complexity and making the process more convenient.

Applications of IIOVT technology not only enhance efficiency in the industrial sector but also bring forth numerous possibilities for various application scenarios, establishing itself as a significant innovation in the Industry 4.0 era.
