IoT-Gateways

Using our IoT gateway, you can collect machine data and gain access to your field devices and controls. Various protocols and interfaces are available for this purpose. Data pre-processing is carried out using the open IoT standard Node-RED, whose large community has a wide range of solutions in store. You can set up interfaces to your own IT systems as well as to cloud solutions like Azure, AWS or IBM. For location-independent remote system maintenance, you can also integrate the gateway into the u-link Remote Access Service.
