ARM Based IoT Edge Computing Gateway
Model: EG5120
Product Overview
The Robustel EG5120 is an industrial-grade IoT edge gateway engineered to seamlessly bridge OT and IT networks. By combining a high-performance quad-core ARM processor with our secure, Debian (LTS) -based RobustOS Pro, it provides a powerful platform for real-time data processing, analytics and control, empowering next-generation IoT applications in smart manufacturing, energy, and smart building.
● Powerful Edge Computing
● Features a Quad-Core 1.6 GHz ARM CPU, 2 GB DDR4 RAM, and 16 GB of eMMC storage, with out-of-the-box support for Docker and a full analytics stack (MQTT, InfluxDB, Node-RED, Grafana).Comprehensive Industrial Connectivity
● Offers global 4G LTE (Dual SIM), 2x Gigabit Ethernet, RS232/RS485 serial ports, and DI/DO/AI, with optional Wi-Fi 5, BLE 5.2, and GNSS for ultimate flexibility.Secure & Reliable Industrial OS (RobustOS Pro)
● Powered by RobustOS Pro, our secure industrial OS built on Debian 11. Its development is certified to IEC 62443-4-1 and validated by penetration testers, while system resilience is ensured by Automatic System Failback. The platform is backed by an industry-leading 10-year Linux LTS.Simplified Cloud Management
Integrates fully with the RCMS cloud platform for fleet-wide monitoring, OTA updates of both the OS and applications running in containers, and secure remote access to end devices like PLCs, dramatically reducing operational costs.
