Our transmitters ipTNA4i and TNA Connect work as a gateway that lets you securely connect on-site devices and buildings to the evalink alarm management ecosystem.

Our devices act as gateways to connect your devices and buildings securely to the evalink platform.

TRANSMITTERS

Enable connectivity for any application

Our certified transmitter fits perfectly into any alarm or fire alarm control panel. The alarms are sent redundantly and encrypted to the evalink platform. Now you can forward alarms as desired.

The TNA is the talent when it comes to connectivity. 

Thanks to integrated protocols like MQTT, Modbus TCP, or Serial Forwarding, you can connect almost any system to it. This includes devices from the industrial automation sector like PLCs, sensor values from IoT devices, etc.

Our device models are dual path capable and connect your site safely and securely to the evalink ecosystem. Thanks to AES-based encryption and permanent supervision, you securely deliver all your alarms to the receiving center.

Forget about difficult and time-consuming commissioning processes. Setting up a TNA from start to finish can be done in a matter of minutes.

Information about in-/outputs and 4G signal level

Which product suits your needs?

The ipTNA4i is certified according to EN 54-21, EN 50136 and VdS.

Certified transmission

Setting up a TNA is very easy and can be done in a matter of minutes. All you need is (at least) one connection to evalink to be able to configure a TNA. If you're on site and are unable to do that due to issues you can as well connect locally to the TNA to set it up.

Easy set-up

The TNA features many integrations and protocols like MQTT, which makes it the perfect player to forward signals.

Connectivity

TNAs are built to be used in many different applications, and decide what configuration you require. Both our device models are available as built-in (PCB only), standalone (plastic housing), and with or without a 4G modem. In addition to that, various kinds of accessories are available to enhance the possibilities further.

Modularity

The TNA can be set-up and configured from anywhere. In addition to that it can act as a gateway for you to remotely access devices that are connected to it, for example the alarm panel or any other Ethernet enabled device.

Remote

Even though the ipTNA4i and the TNA Connect are based on different hardware platforms, around 98% of the feature set is the same. When you are experienced in installing the certified ipTNA4i, achieve precisely the same with the cost-optimized TNA Connect in different applications - no time wasted in learning yet another configuration philosophy.

Two Devices: One goal

We're constantly working on making the TNA more powerful and enhancing its feature set. The Release Notes contain information about all changes so you can get the information you need before you perform an update.

Our TNAs are being improved continuously

Configuration is done via the integrated webserver. It can be accessed either locally or via evalink remotely from anywhere in the world.

Both device models feature a wide-input voltage range (ipTNA41: 2x 10...36VDC; TNA Connect: 1x 7...28VDC and 1x 5V via USB).

The TNA devices are very versatile when it comes to connecting other devices. They offer many protocols, such as Modbus TCP or MQTT, to receive data. On the other hand, features like Remote Access allow you to access the devices connected to the TNA.

The TNA Connect is the best way to connect with the evalink ecosystem for IoT and technical applications.

The TNA Connect is a compelling and secure transmission device. In combination with the many interfaces, it's a perfect affordable fit for many IoT and technical applications.


The TNA Connect features a lot of (physical) interfaces out of the box to interact with all kinds of systems.


To allow third-party devices to send data, the TNA features many interfaces to interact with. For example, MQTT allows various devices, such as PLCs or IoT devices, to send data. Making the TNA the ultimate gateway to connect many different systems to evalink.


Because nobody can predict the future in technology, the TNA was built to be modular. Thanks to the USB ports the functionality can be enhanced easily, for example to add support for an RS-232, RS-422 o RS-485 interface.

The pin header allow for a close integration of modules, for example our PSTN to IP module or the I/O Module


4G Mobile can be used as a backup path to the Ethernet connection towards evalink. The connection is monitored 24/7 just like Ethernet with no additional costs.


Older alarm panels may utilize the analog phone line to transmit alarms. With the Dial Convert Module these alarms can be received by the TNA.


Running an Ethernet cable may be expensive or simply not possible. With the Wi-Fi Client Mode Adapter the TNA can connect to the local Wi-Fi and use it as a path towards evalink.


To further simplify the commissioning in difficult situations on site (i.e. no Ethernet available, no Mobile reception, ...) the Wi-Fi Access Point Adapter allows the TNA to become a Wi-Fi Access Point. This way you can access it from your Notebook or Smartphone via Wi-Fi to set it up.


Many alarm panels and other devices feature a serial interface on which they output (additional) data. This means you can receive serial data from any device on evalink via the TNA.


We offer a variety of 4G antennas depending on your requirements.


This housing allows for up to 72h of autonomy. It contains a lead-acid battery and the corresponding electronics for charging and monitoring.
