IoT Gateways

IoT Gateways are industrial devices designed to provide device-to-device or device-to-cloud communication, linking sensors, controllers and machinery in a smart and effective network. These gateways normally provide specialist solutions to industrial applications, and are often used in complex automation systems.

IoT, or 'internet of things', is a constantly evolving revolution in machine connectivity and industrial internet, and gateways are a significant part of the process. They can perform a variety of IoT applications, such as data filtering and complex analysis, and even allowing visibility and monitoring of data. Industrial IoT gateways can be used with legacy devices or not internet-connected machines to transplant them into a localized network or on-cloud IoT ecosystem. Gateways are also essential in edge computing, or fog computing, which allows complex data functions to be performed at source and on premises, rather than over a cloud network.

The RS Components range of IoT Gateway devices has excellent solutions for expanding your IoT ecosystem or levelling up your industrial environment.
