Frequently Asked Questions

Amber DryLink is a dry contact IoT transmitter from Amber IoT that monitors the open or closed state of a contact such as a relay, switch, or sensor output and reports changes over the Sigfox 0G network. It provides a simple way to bring almost any contact-based signal online wirelessly. The device is designed and supported in South Africa as part of Amber IoT's IoT range.

Amber DryLink connects to a dry contact input, detects when that contact opens or closes, and transmits the change over the Sigfox 0G low-power network to a backend platform. Because it uses a dedicated low-power radio, it runs on battery for extended periods and works where cellular coverage is limited. This lets you monitor equipment states remotely without complex wiring or a mains connection.

Amber DryLink can monitor almost anything that produces a dry contact signal for example gate and door status, pump or machine on/off states, fault outputs, float switches, and tamper contacts. This versatility makes it useful across security, industrial, agricultural, and utility applications. Any change in the contact is reported wirelessly for remote visibility.

No Amber DryLink runs on the low-power Sigfox 0G network and is designed for battery operation, so it does not need network cabling or, in many cases, a mains supply. This makes it quick to install on existing equipment and suitable for remote or off-grid locations. It removes much of the cost and complexity of wired monitoring.

Amber DryLink is typically used wherever a simple on/off or open/closed status needs remote monitoring such as gates, pumps, machinery, doors, and fault or tamper signals across distributed sites. Its low power and Sigfox connectivity suit locations that are off-grid or spread over a wide area. Amber IoT can advise on integrating its data into your monitoring platform.
