The smart base station All ESL devices are managed by the ESL Server software. The ESL devices communicate wirelessly via the base station. This is an access point that provides the communication between the ESL Server software and the ESL devices. The EBS-50 is a combination of a Linux microcomputer and a base station. The Linux computer runs the ESL Server software and the base station communicates with your ESL devices, making it the only hardware you need to install. If you have an EBS-50 and want to extend the wireless range in the store, no additional smart base station is needed. The EBS-40 is built for that task. Easy installation An EBS-50 only needs power and a network connection. If you have PoE, you only need one cable to install the EBS-50. Wireless connection with a USB dongle is also possible if there is no wired network available. These connectivity options, as well as the added value of the EBS-50 hosting its own database server, make this solution a lightweight infrastructure and thus easy to deploy. Manage your ESLs from any smart device With a completely redesigned user interface, any smart device connected to the same network as the EBS-50 (even via VPN) can use its web browser to access the ESL server's web interface and manage the labels. No mouse, keyboard or monitor is required.
