HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 – BACnet IP Master / HTTP/REST Client LTE VPN

HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 – BACnet IP Master and HTTP/REST Client integration with SIM LTE and VPN.

HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 is an industrial BACnet IP Master / HTTP/REST Client converter by ADFweb, designed to integrate building and industrial automation systems based on BACnet IP with applications, servers and platforms communicating through HTTP/REST. On the BACnet side, the device operates as a BACnet IP Master, allowing it to exchange data with BACnet IP devices in an Ethernet network. On the web communication side, the converter works as an HTTP/REST Client, enabling data to be sent to external servers, IIoT applications, reporting systems or higher-level platforms using REST architecture. The HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 variant is equipped with LAN + SIM LTE connectivity and VPN Service. This model does not include eSIM, so it is intended for applications where an RJ45 port, a physical SIM LTE card and remote communication through VPN are required.

BACnet IP Master / HTTP/REST Client converter with LAN, SIM LTE and VPN

HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 enables BACnet IP communication to be connected with systems using data exchange through HTTP/REST. In practice, this means that data from building automation devices, such as HVAC controllers, regulators, meters, I/O modules, BMS systems or other devices operating in a BACnet IP network, can be collected and transferred to a web-based environment. The converter can act as an intermediate communication element between the automation layer and a higher-level application that receives data through HTTP/REST requests or messages. This solution is useful when modernizing existing installations where BACnet data must be used by a web system, analytics tool, reporting platform or IIoT solution. The presence of SIM LTE and VPN Service increases deployment flexibility in distributed facilities, field installations and telemetry cabinets. As a result, HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 can be used where BACnet automation must be connected with an HTTP/REST application and where access to the device through a controlled remote communication path is required.

Ethernet RJ45, BACnet IP, HTTP/REST Client, SIM LTE and VPN Service

The HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 uses 1 Ethernet RJ45 port for BACnet IP communication, HTTP/REST communication and device configuration. The Ethernet interface supports 10/100 Base-T Autosensing, allowing integration with typical technical networks used in building and industrial automation. On the BACnet side, the device operates as a BACnet IP Master, while on the web side it operates as an HTTP/REST Client. The G43-VPN version uses an LTE module and a physical Micro-SIM card, while the antenna connector is SMA Female. VPN Service is important in applications that require remote access to the installation, off-site diagnostics or data transmission through a cellular connection. The converter also provides electrical isolation between Ethernet and Power Supply, improving stability in industrial environments and reducing the influence of disturbances between the communication section and the power section.

BACnet IP data mapping to HTTP/REST communication

An important function of the HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 is the ability to prepare data exchange between objects on the BACnet IP side and the HTTP/REST communication structure. In a typical application, the converter can collect values from BACnet IP devices and then transfer them to an HTTP/REST server in the format required by the higher-level application. Such data may include temperatures, humidity, device operating states, alarms, counter values, controller statuses, input module signals or parameters used by a BMS system. On the HTTP/REST Client side, the device can work with data prepared for a specific payload structure, helping adapt communication to the requirements of the receiving system. This is particularly important in projects where building automation must be connected to a cloud platform, reporting application, maintenance system or custom customer software. As a result, HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 helps organize communication between the BACnet IP world and the application layer using HTTP/REST.

Configuration and diagnostics

The HD67G13-IP-G43-VPN-B2 converter is configured using SW67G13 software. The program allows the user to prepare communication parameters on the BACnet IP Master side and on the HTTP/REST Client side, and then upload the configuration to the device. This allows the user to define how data is exchanged between the BACnet IP network and the system receiving data through HTTP/REST. The software is intended to run in an MS Windows environment. ADFweb diagnostic tools can be used to find the device in the network and check its IP address. This approach simplifies gateway commissioning in automation cabinets, Ethernet communication testing and later service support of the installation.
