Pulse Convert+ is a BACnet IP and MQTT protocol gateway built on a fanless industrial PC. It reads data from BACnet devices in an existing BMS and publishes it as JSON over MQTT with TLS 1.2. It can also expose MQTT data as BACnet objects, which is how BMS data and BuildOT One share information.

Pulse Convert+ is a versatile and robust protocol converter designed to seamlessly integrate BACnet devices into an MQTT infrastructure. It enables BACnet-based systems, such as HVAC, lighting, energy management and security systems, to communicate with MQTT devices for efficient remote monitoring and control. With support for TLS v1.2, it ensures secure, encrypted MQTT communication.
Built on an industrial-grade fanless PC, Pulse Convert+ is suitable for both commercial and industrial applications. Its flexible configuration allows it to function as a BACnet Client/Master, MQTT Subscriber, BACnet Server, and MQTT Client. This versatility supports data collection from BACnet devices and secure publishing over MQTT for remote clients, while also enabling remote commands to control field devices.
Pulse Convert+ scales easily to connect multiple devices and brokers, making it ideal for networks of any size. Its compact design ensures easy installation, providing a powerful yet straightforward solution for optimizing building automation and control systems.
Gather data from geographically distributed BACnet devices and transmit it securely over MQTT for centralized remote management.
Integrate HVAC, lighting, and security systems into an MQTT infrastructure for centralized monitoring, control, and data analytics, enhancing operational efficiency.
Enable seamless communication between BACnet-based industrial equipment and MQTT systems for efficient control, predictive maintenance and process control.

Convert+ products bring existing wired equipment online without new cabling: Modbus RS485 meters and controllers over LoRaWAN or 4G LTE, and BMS points over BACnet and MQTT.
Convert+ turns Modbus RS485 meters and controllers into wireless LoRaWAN devices, so existing equipment reports to BuildOT One without new cabling.
ConvertIQ LTE from MachineSens IoT converts Modbus RS485 devices to 4G LTE with MQTT over TLS for UAE and GCC buildings, feeding BuildOT One.
