Link2M (Link-To-Machine) is a universal Cloud-based M2M/telemetry/IoT platform for end-to-end connectivity, networking and integration between machines, sensors or devices and management systems.
Link2M platform consists of 2 main parts:
-
Link2M-Web – Cloud-based Internet Server.
-
Link2M-U – stand alone device for remote communication and control.
We modify and customize Link2M platform to meet the customer requirements.
