DRN 500
The Digicom DRN 500 is a compact industrial 4G CAT4 LTE router designed for remote control and monitoring of PLCs, microcontrollers, I/O devices, and energy meters. Featuring dual SIM failover, RS-485/RS-232, 2× Ethernet, digital I/O, MQTT, Modbus RTU/TCP support, USB Type-C, 9–32VDC input, and DIN-rail mounting, it is ideal for industrial automation, control panels, and IIoT deployments.
The Digicom DRN 500 is a multifunction 4G router with built-in Modbus master and MQTT client. It reads registers from serial Modbus devices (like energy meters), publishes the data to an external MQTT broker, and ThingsBoard subscribes to that broker through an MQTT Integration.
This guide covers connecting a DRN 500 to ThingsBoard via an external MQTT broker, reading energy meter telemetry ( voltage, current, frequency, power), and visualizing it on a dashboard.
