Industrial-Grade IoT Gateways: A path to digital
transformation By Rhett Evans, Embedded Business Development Manager, Anders Electronics
I
n the rapidly evolving landscape of industrial automation, embedded systems play a pivotal role in connecting legacy infrastructure to modern intelligent technologies. As industries strive for seamless connectivity, IoT
gateways have emerged as essential components, acting as the bridge between outdated systems and the Internet
of Tings (IoT). Industrial-grade IoT gateways, specifically, are designed to withstand the rigorous demands of industrial environments while ensuring reliable, secure and scalable data handling.
The challenge of legacy systems Legacy systems weren’t designed for today’s connected world, but that doesn’t mean you have to start from scratch. Industrial IoT Gateways provide the vital link between existing infrastructure and new, intelligent technologies at the edge. From handling diverse interfaces and harsh environments to enabling secure local processing, the right gateway can transform your system from outdated to future-ready.
What makes an IOT Gateway Industrial Grade? Diverse interface requirements Embedded systems oſten need to integrate with a variety of legacy and modern devices. Industrial IoT gateways support a wide range of interfaces such as RS232, RS485, Bluetooth, CAN-FD and fieldbus. Tis adaptability is crucial when modernising infrastructure without completely replacing existing systems.
Durability for harsh environments In industries such industrial manufacturing, automotive, fleet management or energy, IoT gateways must withstand tough conditions. From extreme temperatures to dust, vibration, and humidity, robust
enclosures and reinforced components are essential for maintaining performance and longevity.
