The Robustel LG5100 is an industrial edge computing gateway with an embedded LoRaWAN server , designed to connect wireless sensors in industrial IoT , smart cities , environmental monitoring , building automation and critical infrastructure .

4G/3G/2G networks via dual-SIM and external antennas, the LG5100 combines robust connectivity with local processing capabilities through the Debian 11 (Bullseye) operating system , plus RobustOS Pro — which allows the installation of thousands of packages and the use of Docker for custom containers in Python, Node.js, C/C++, Java , among other languages.

Main Features

 

Its integrated LoRaWAN radio offers 8 simultaneous channels , allowing for the reliable reception of thousands of messages per day. This makes the LG5100 ideal for projects that demand massive connectivity with LoRaWAN sensors , such as precision agriculture , remote utility metering , waste management , water monitoring , and more.

The hardware is industrial-grade, featuring a 792 MHz ARM Cortex-A7 CPU , 512 MB of DDR3 RAM , and 8 GB of eMMC , offering an excellent balance between performance and energy efficiency. It also includes two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports with PoE-PD support , two configurable serial interfaces (RS-232/RS-485) , two digital inputs (DI) , two digital outputs (DO) , and one USB host port . The flexible 9-60 V DC with reverse polarity protection expands its field applicability.

In terms of security and connectivity, the LG5100 offers features such as VPNs (IPsec, OpenVPN, GRE, etc.) , firewall with IP/MAC/domain filtering , DMZ , anti-DoS protection, and industrial protocols such as Modbus RTU/TCP with MQTT bridge , ensuring direct integration with SCADA systems, PLCs, and sensors.

Remote management of the LG5100 is done securely and efficiently through Above-Net 's Bridgemanager , which allows continuous monitoring, device provisioning, carrier control, intelligent alerts, and customized dashboards, all via a web interface.

Furthermore, the gateway is compatible with Bridgemeter Above-Net 's intelligent solution for collecting, normalizing, and analyzing industrial data in real time. This allows the LG5100 to be transformed into a powerful tool for continuous monitoring of operational efficiency, losses, process deviations, and environmental indicators.

DIN rail, wall or benchtop mounting , support for extreme temperatures (-40 °C to +70 °C) decentralized IoT architectures focused on performance, integration and field automation.
