UPLC3 Universal Power Line Carrier

UPLC3

COMING SOON! 
UPLC3, our third generation Power Line Carrier, is redesigned with the latest technology allowing for future-proof expandability

The UPLC3 is the next leap in the evolution of Power Line Carriers in the industry. It includes a completely reimagined transceiver board with a robust pluggable processor with significantly increased capacity for future feature expansions. We've specifically designed the UPLC3 with you in mind to be more user friendly with a completely redesigned web browser interface and front panel to access more TX and RX level information. Cybersecurity capabilities have been enhanced with the addition of HTTPS. It also has the ability to easily reset passwords to the default if the password is forgotten. 

Utilizing current infrastructure while adding new capabilities is important to AMETEK Power Instruments, that is why we have maintained end-to-end compatibility with all previous generation AMETEK Power Line Carrier sets. This enables you to have a UPLC-II, UPLC or TC/TCF-10B at the opposite end of the line, even for checkback testing. For easy upgrades and retrofitting, the UPLC3 is still housed in the same chassis as the UPLC-II. The physical design changes from the UPLC-II to UPLC3 include a new front door, transceiver board and front display board.
