TCG-4

Telematics Data Module for MM-IoT

Remote Technical Support

Combined with Reach Asset Manager, perform remote support over local USB or Ethernet connections on your machine devices, eliminating the need for manual machine software updates.

The Ultimate Edge Computing Device for MM-IoT Applications

Overview

The TCG-4 is the latest and most powerful on-board telematics module from STW. This digitalization platform offers multiple communication interfaces and a powerful 32-bit ARM processor; making new business models possible, and allowing for further innovation in existing ones. Designed especially to meet the demands of the mobile off-highway environment, the TCG-4 is the first step mobile machine OEMs should take in building their own MM-IoT strategy - maximizing return on investment by streamlining their fleet and business operations alike.

Wireless Communication

With versatile interfaces and protocols, the TCG-4 manages the communication within the machine, its onboard devices, among other machines (M2M), and to the internet and cloud services.
