IoT Edge Computing Gateway

What are the characteristics of IoT edge computing gateways? Applications of IoT gateways

　　 IoT gateway edge computing is the local calculation and analysis performed on the side close to the data source near the terminal device. Essentially, both edge computing and cloud computing were born to deal with data computing problems, but they are implemented in different ways. Cloud computing is to gather data together for calculation, while edge computing is to perform calculations on the terminal. So what are the characteristics of edge computing gateways?

 Edge computing gateway features:

　　 1. Possess super edge computing capabilities

　　How to make data can be transmitted to the cloud or remote terminal at low cost and efficiently is of great significance. The Juhe Gateway, which has super edge computing capabilities, can process nearby data through decentralization of data processing authority. There is no need to worry about the problem of unsmooth remote communication transmission. It has huge functional advantages related to ordinary IoT gateways. 

　　 2. Rich excuses to enhance adaptability

　　The interface can be 4 WAN ports, RS232 serial ports, RS485 serial ports, USB and 4 AD/IO ports. Generally, in scenarios such as computer rooms and power distribution rooms, due to the large number of devices, the types of lines and interface styles are relatively large, and the common IoT gateway interface is relatively single and cannot meet the needs.

 　　 And the Jubox gateway only needs one to realize the connection with a variety of devices, which is more convenient to use, and also greatly reduces the cost of the application.

Zokolink's industrial intelligent gateway has strong edge computing capabilities. It serves as a communication hub at the industrial application field and platform server to realize data collection, communication protocol conversion and data transmission in the industrial field, and is used for equipment informatization and industrial big data in the industrial field. The application provides an efficient and reliable data channel.

　　Industrial grade IoT gateway function

　　1. Protocol conversion capability

Protocol conversion from different perception networks to access networks, unified encapsulation of the data in the standard format of the lower layer, to ensure that the protocols of different perception networks can become unified data and signaling; the data packets sent by the upper layer are parsed into perception The signaling and control commands that can be identified by the layer protocol.

　　 The conversion capability of the gateway combined with the wireless communication protocol technology has greatly increased the extension distance of the Internet of Things, but the Internet of Things technology also faces some unique challenges. One of the challenges is that, limited by system memory, data storage capacity, and computing power, many IoT nodes cannot directly connect to IP-based networks, which makes it difficult to interconnect everything. The IoT gateway can fill this gap and build a network bridge between the IP-based public network and the local IoT, using different communication protocols, data formats or languages, and even between two systems with completely different architectures. 

　　2, manageability

　　 The gateway must first be managed, such as registration management, authority management, status supervision, etc. The gateway realizes the management of the nodes in the subnet, such as obtaining the identity, status, attributes, energy, etc. of the nodes, and remotely realizes wake-up, control, diagnosis, upgrade and maintenance, etc. Due to the different technical standards of the subnets and the different complexity of the protocols, the management capabilities of the gateways are different. 

　　3, a wide range of access capabilities

　　 There are many technical standards for short-range communication. Nowadays, standardization work for IoT gateways is being carried out at home and abroad, such as 3GPP, sensor working group, to realize the interconnection and intercommunication of various communication technology standards.

　　 Industrial-grade IoT gateway application:

　　Electricity: voltage and current data real-time monitoring and alarm, urban power grid, street lamp control;

　　Security: remote access control system monitoring, anti-theft device alarm;

　　 Energy: coal, oil, natural gas, oil field data collection, heating system monitoring;

　　 traffic: motor vehicles, license plate capture monitoring system, vehicle violation monitoring, traffic light control;

　　Environmental protection: real-time data collection of tap water, sewage pipelines, pumping stations and water plants for real-time monitoring and maintenance;
