Choosing the right IoT gateway in a complex industrial environment is key to the success or failure of a project. It is recommended to consider the following dimensions, combined with Tespro’s advantages:
- Protocol Compatibility (Most Core): There are many types of field devices, and the gateway must be able to “understand” their languages. With a massive protocol library accumulated over 24 years, Tespro industrial gateways can be compatible with over 90% of industrial devices on the market, greatly reducing integration difficulty.
- Edge Computing Needs: If all raw data is uploaded to the cloud, it will lead to high bandwidth costs and cloud pressure. Tespro gateways have powerful edge computing capabilities, completing data cleaning, aggregation, and alarm judgment locally, uploading only valuable data.
- Network Access Methods: Choose a gateway supporting Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or 4G/5G based on site conditions. Tespro offers various network combinations and supports multi-link backup to ensure high availability of data transmission.
- Industrial-Grade Reliability: Industrial site environments are harsh. Tespro gateways feature a fanless design, wide temperature and wide voltage input, and high-level lightning and anti-static protection, ensuring long-term stable operation in extreme environments.
Scenario Example: In the digital transformation of an old factory, device brands are messy and lack unified interfaces. Using a Tespro industrial gateway, various old PLCs and meters can be connected via serial or network ports. Utilizing its powerful protocol parsing function, heterogeneous data is uniformly converted into MQTT format, easily integrating into the enterprise’s MES or ERP system, achieving low-cost, high-efficiency digital upgrading.
