HD67C28-G43-VPN-B2 OPC UA Client to MQTT Broker converter with LTE SIM and VPN service

HD67C28-G43-VPN-B2 – industrial OPC UA Client / MQTT Broker converter with built-in VPN service, housing type B, DIN rail mounting, LAN and LTE connectivity (Micro-SIM), fixed screw terminal block connectors.

HD67C28-G43-VPN-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, allowing it to read variables from OPC UA Servers on the plant network and then expose them to higher-level applications, IoT platforms and analytics systems through an embedded MQTT Broker.

The key differentiator of HD67C28-G43-VPN-B2 is the integrated VPN service, enabling encrypted remote access to the infrastructure and process data. Combined with LTE connectivity using a Micro-SIM card, this variant is well suited for distributed automation systems, mobile installations and sites without fixed wired connectivity.

The Ethernet RJ45 port is used for device programming and 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. The G43 version includes an LTE 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
• Consumption at 24V DC: 5 W
• 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.
