Smart IoT Edge Devices for
Data Acquisition & Real-Time Visibility
๐ Overview
The ETAlog Series is Cognetaโs family of rugged, intelligent IoT and data acquisition devices purpose-built for renewable plants, substations, industrial assets, and remote monitoring.
From compact RTU modules to full-scale data concentrators, each model is engineered for millisecond-accurate acquisition, secure communication, and protocol bridging โ enabling real-time integration of field data into SCADA, EMS, cloud platforms, and analytics dashboards.
