HD67C28-G43-E-B2 OPC UA Client to MQTT Broker converter with LAN, LTE Micro-SIM and internal eSIM

HD67C28-G43-E-B2 – industrial OPC UA Client / MQTT Broker converter, housing type B, DIN rail mounting, LAN and LTE connectivity (Micro-SIM + internal eSIM), fixed screw terminal block connectors.

HD67C28-G43-E-B2 is an industrial communication converter designed to integrate data sources available via OPC UA with systems that use MQTT. The device operates as an OPC UA Client, so it can read variables from OPC UA Servers on the plant network and then deliver them to higher-level applications, IoT platforms and analytics systems through an embedded MQTT Broker.

The G43 version is built for distributed deployments where mobile connectivity matters. This E variant adds an internal eSIM alongside the Micro-SIM slot, giving you more flexibility when selecting LTE connectivity for remote sites and long-term installations. It is a practical option for outdoor installations, temporary sites, containerized systems and projects where fast commissioning and stable mobile communication are important.

The converter uses the Ethernet RJ45 interface for device programming as well as for MQTT and OPC UA communication. The interface provides one MAC Address for MQTT and one for OPC UA, which helps keep network diagnostics and traffic identification clear. For LTE transmission the device uses a cellular module and an SMA Female antenna connector (antenna with SMA Male).

The device provides:

• Electrical isolation between Ethernet and Power Supply
• Wide operating temperature range -40°C to +85°C
• Wide power supply range: 8…24V AC / 12…35V DC
• 35 mm DIN rail mounting
• Industrial enclosure Modulbox 4M, type B with fixed screw terminal connectors

These parameters ensure reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.
