The
MXE-200i is a dedicated IIoT gateway product developed by ADLINK. The gateway is based on the Intel®IoT Gateway, a portfolio of pre-integrated and pre-validated software and hardware bundles developed to address the challenges facing IIoT. This platform enables reduced development time and easier and more cost-efficient deployment of IIoT applications.
Solutions based on the Intel IoT Gateway are key to enabling the connectivity of legacy industrial devices and other systems to the IoT. Designed in collaboration with McAfee and Wind River, Intel IoT Gateway solutions are intelligent systems integrating technologies and communication protocols for networking and embedded control with reinforced security. McAfee Embedded Control maximizes security by dynamically monitoring and managing whitelists that allow only pre-authorized programs to run in the system. Wind River Intelligent Device Platform XT and Wind River Workbench provide a proven development environment.
In addition to the connectivity, security and manageability solutions provided by being based on the Intel IoT Gateway platform, the ADLINK
MXE-200i provides the benefits of ADLINK's proprietary SEMA utility, This utility enables a flexible connection to push data to the cloud, deliver remote monitoring and control capabilities, and offer rich libraries and tools allowing OEM customers to easily configure and design intuitive GUIs viewable on any browser-based device for 24/7 data access.
A possible application scenario includes deployment of dynamic signal acquisition modules such as ADLINK's
USB-2405 and USB-2401 and a thermocouple input module like ADLINK's
ND-6018 to acquire and collect sensor data and transmit it to an
MXE-200i gateway controller for primary computing. The gateway then sends only processed meaningful data to the cloud server for further analysis and utilization.
Computing performed at the gateway, or fog computing (fogging) alleviates cloud computing loading and reduces data traffic volume over the network, improving connectivity and reducing networking costs.
For peak performance of local analytics and other applications, the
MXE-200i features the dual-core performance of the Intel® Atom™ processor E3826. This processor supports Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3) for fast, efficient digital signal processing of sensor and instrumentation data such as the FFT algorithm.
To accommodate a wide range of indoor and outdoor environments, the
MXE-200i features a compact footprint— 120 (W) x 60 (H) x 100 (D) mm, and rugged, fanless design with an environmental temperature tolerance of -20°C to 70°C. The platform offers rich I/O for sensors and data acquisition modules, as well as optional wireless modules for Wi-Fi* and 3G/4G/LTE.
