Communication 

The BGS32 utilizes Packet Power’s advanced zero-configuration wireless mesh networking 
technology which automatically connects the BGS32 to an Ethernet Gateway when 
energized. Each Gateway can support up to 25 BGS32s; additional Gateways can be added 
for capacity or redundancy.  

 

  

 

 
 
The BGS32 must be able to establish a wireless connection either directly to a Gateway or to 
another Packet Power wireless device. 
 
Data can be accessed from the Gateway in one of two ways:  
 

Third Party Device Data Acquisition

 - Third party monitoring systems can access data 

from a Gateway via SNMP, Modbus TCP/IP, Ethernet/IP, MTConnect, BACnet/IP and 
MQTT protocols. 
 

Cloud Based Data Acquisition

 - Data can be simultaneously exported to the Packet Power 

EMX monitoring portal (local or cloud based).
