Connectivity
Unique options
Special SW drivers map serial SCADA protocol addresses to M!DGE IP addresses and reduce the data amount which are transferred over-the-air.
Ethernet
Radio and Cellular technologies interconnected within one network and utilize the best characteristics of each.
Network characteristics | |
Radio | Cellular |
Private network – completely under user’s control | Public network – 3rd party dependency Make use of existing infrastructure |
Single user – guaranteed capacity and behaviour | Multi users can affect capacity and behaviour |
Licensed frequency – guaranteed quality of service | Public networks – quality of service not guaranteed |
Higher investment, guaranteed running fees paid to government | Lower investment, unpredictable running fees paid to private company |
Mission critical real-time applications | Non-mission critical applications |

Accessories
RACOM is a primary producer and therefore does not provide delivery of all available accessories for its products. This list contains tested accessories which RACOM is able to deliver together with M!DGE units. Components are only held in limited quantities and the delivery date may therefore be affected by the need for subcontracting. If you require other accessories, please contact us or your supplier.
There are many antennas available on the market which can be used with M!DGE. If you are not sure about a specific type, please contact us for consultation.
Economy antenna
