The Robustel EG5100 is an industrial edge computing designed for mission-critical applications in industrial IoT , automation , energy , logistics , and smart cities . With global 4G/3G/2G via dual-SIM , versatile industrial interfaces, and embedded local processing, the EG5100 delivers high performance and reliability in the field.

Equipped with a 792 MHz ARM Cortex-A7 processor , 512 MB of DDR3 RAM , 8 GB of eMMC , and the Debian 11 (Bullseye) with RobustOS Pro Docker applications with support for languages ​​such as Python, C/C++, Java, and Node.js. This enables the rapid deployment of customized services at the network edge, with high flexibility and cloud independence.

Main Features:

 

The equipment has 2 magnetically isolated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports , 2 configurable serial ports (RS-232/RS-485 or CAN) , 2 digital inputs (DI) , 2 digital outputs (DO) , 1 USB 2.0 host port , and optional support for dual-band Wi-Fi (802.11ac) , Bluetooth 5.2/5.3 and GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo) .

Its communication capabilities are robust, with two SMA-K antennas and dual SIM slots , offering automatic redundancy and connection stability for remote or mobile scenarios. The gateway also supports secure VPNs (IPsec, OpenVPN, GRE, L2TP, PPTP, DMVPN) , an advanced firewall with DMZ , IP/MAC/domain filtering , access control, and DoS attack prevention.

For industrial integration, the EG5100 offers a Modbus RTU/TCP gateway with MQTT bridge , allowing direct and secure connection of sensors, PLCs, and SCADA systems.

Remote management and monitoring is performed by the Bridgemanager , developed by Above-Net , which allows complete control of devices in the field, with customizable dashboards, connectivity diagnostics, intelligent alerts, and centralized management of operators and SIM cards.

Furthermore, the EG5100 is compatible with Bridgemeter Above-Net solution focused on operational data normalization , continuous efficiency monitoring , automatic calculation of rejection, losses, and process deviations , especially in sanitation, energy, OEE, and industrial IoT applications.

The device is designed for harsh environments, with an IP30 metal housing , a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C , a 9 to 60 V DC power supply with reverse polarity protection , a typical idle power consumption of 3 W DIN rail, wall, or benchtop mounting .

The EG5100 delivers secure edge processing, resilient connectivity, and integration with intelligent platforms to transform raw data into agile and reliable operational decisions.
