Enphase, Envoy Communications Gateway, with Ethernet Bridge pair with Lifetime
Enlighten Subscription, Qty 1, ENV-120-01
The Enphase Micro-inverter continuously monitors itself and the performance of each PV module. This data is communicated over the existing power line to the Enphase Energy Management Unit. The Enphase Energy Management Unit Collects data and from all the Micro-inverters and transmits the information to the Enphase Enlighten website.
The Enphase Envoy (EMU) is a communications gateway that collects performance information for each solar module in a user's system and transmits this data to the Enlighten website, where users can view and manage the performance of their solar power system. The Envoy can be plugged into any standard AC outlet. Enphase Micro-inverters transmit data over the existing power line. No additional wiring is required. Once the unit is plugged into an AC outlet, simply connect an Ethernet cable from the Envoy into a broadband router. Performance data is transmitted using broadband Ethernet protocols for immediate access to performance information.
The EMU is an integral component of the Enphase Energy Micro-inverter system. Itoperates between the Enphase Micro-inverters and the Enphase Enlighten web based monitoring and analysis. The EMU functions as a gateway and monitors the Micro-inverters that are connected to the photovoltaic modules. The EMU collects energy and performance data from the Micro-inverters over in-home AC power lines.It then forwards that data to the Enphase Enlighten web-based monitoring andanalysis, via the Internet, for statistical reporting.
