Our RINC 2026 Showcase
At RINC 2026, TNS showcased a live Next-Gen Secure OT/IT Edge Connectivity demo featuring industrial network redundancy, secure routing, serial communication, I/O control and centralised network monitoring. The demonstration brought together industrial networking, edge connectivity and computing solutions to show how they can operate as one connected and cyber-resilient system.
Inside Our Next-Gen Secure OT/IT Demo
The demo brings industrial networking, edge connectivity and real-time monitoring together in one integrated OT/IT setup. It demonstrates:
- Secure and reliable network communication
- Serial device, power meter and I/O connectivity
- Real-time device monitoring through MXview One
- Improved visibility and control across the network
Our Demo Network Topology
The demo combines network redundancy, secure connectivity and field-device communication in one integrated industrial setup. The EDS-G4012 and EDS-4008 form a Turbo Ring v2 network, while the EDS-G512E and EDR-G9010 extend redundancy through Turbo Chain.
The NPort 6150-G2, MGate MB3170-G2 and ioThinx 4510 are connected to the network for serial communication, power-meter data collection and digital or analogue I/O control. MXview One provides a central view of the devices, connections, port status and redundancy roles, making the complete network easier to monitor and manage.
Build Your Next-Gen Secure Network
Modern power systems rely on more than electrical equipment alone. They also require reliable network communication, secure access, real-time device control and accurate energy data.
Our demo brings these capabilities together in a compact industrial setup. It demonstrates how managed switches, a secure router, serial communication devices, remote I/O modules and a power meter can work as one connected system.

Networking Products (Turbo Ring V2 & Chain)
-
EDS-G4012
Turbo Ring v2 (Master)
Forms the main redundant network and helps maintain communication if one of the ring links is disconnected.
-
EDS-4008
Turbo Ring v2 (Partner Switch)
Works with the EDS-G4012 to complete the redundant ring and provide an alternative communication path.
-
EDR-G9010
Turbo Chain (Head)
Secure router that connects NPort, MGate and ioThinx, acts as the Turbo Chain Head, and secures communication using firewall, NAT and VPN.
-
EDS-G512E
Turbo Chain (Tail)
Acts as the Turbo Chain Tail, completing the chain and linking it to the wider redundant network for reliable communication.
Serial Communication & I/Os
-
NPort 6150-G2
Secure Serial to Ethernet Communication
Demonstrates serial loopback communication through its web console and PComm Terminal, allowing transmitted data to be tested over the network.
-
MGate MB3170-G2
Secure Modbus Protocol Gateway
Retrieves serial Modbus readings from power meter and makes the information available to Ethernet-based monitoring systems.
-
ioThinx 4510
Modular Digital & Analogue I/O Control
Monitors and controls LEDs, a potentiometer and a button using the 45MR-2404 relay output, 45MR-3800 analogue input, 45MR-4420 analogue output and 45MR-1601 digital input modules.
