IP67 IoT Gateway with 4G LTE
The IPX-860M 4G LTE IoT Gateway is a RPi-compatible Linux-based, rugged and IP67-protected computer designed specifically for mobile and industrial applications. The IPX-860M IoT Gateway enables easy and secure connection of vehicles, machines, devices and sensors to the cloud. The platform is ideal for tasks such as automation applications to capture, process, store, and transfer data locally. Remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, process control, data acquisition and automation are so easy and customizable. The IPX-860M IoT Gateway platform is ideal for a variety of mobile and industrial applications. It is an ideal platform for custom application software.
Fast and easy software implementation and internet connection
A variety of packages, protocols and connectivity options are available for the specific connection to the process and the cloud:
- NodeRed
- Codesys
- MQTT
- REST
- J1939
- CANopen
- AWS - Azure - Google Cloud - Cumulocit
Wireless Network Interfaces
The connection to the cloud can be made wirelessly via the integrated LTE / 4G interface or via an integrated WLAN module. A ready-to-use pppd system or, alternatively, a high-speed QMI interface provide a fast and easy wireless connection to the Internet. The integrated WLAN and the Bluetooth low-energy interface have a combined external antenna connection. The SIM card is housed in a sturdy SIM card holder and accessible from the outside. The LTE / 4G module has an automatic fallback feature for 3G / 2G if no 4G network is available. The modules can be reset via a software interface. This enables reliable 24/7 operation.
Rich set of interfaces
The IPX-860M IoT Gateway provides seamless connectivity to a variety of on-site interfaces and sensor coupling. Up to 2 CAN ports support the standards CAN 2.0A and 2.0B. In addition to the Ethernet LAN connection, additional RS485, RS232, 1-wire and sensor interfaces are available. In addition, both USB and digital inputs and outputs are available. The intelligent power supply of the IPX-860 enables intelligent switching on and off of the system.
Flexible Debian 9 - Stretch Linux operating System
The IPX-860M IoT Gateway supports the Raspbian-based Debian 9 / Stretch Linux system. All interfaces, such as the CAN bus and serial interfaces, as well as the digital inputs and outputs are controlled via standard APIs or standard Linux device interfaces. The system offers high flexibility by supporting a variety of different programming systems. Programming can be done in C / C ++, with the Node Red system, Python, Java or other common programming systems. Prototype applications on an RPi system can be directly adopted. RPI software compatibility also provides access to a huge knowledge base about the system. This results in significant time and cost savings in implementing the application system.
