Unipi Gate G110

Product description

Unipi Gate G110 is a programmable Ethernet / RS485 Linux IoT gateway and logic controller designed for industrial automation, building management systems, and other automation projects. Thanks to sufficient computing power, software openness, and favorable price this IoT platform is applicable as a data logger in SCADA or MES control systems, or in cloud services within Smart City, Smart Factory, and IoT/IIoT projects. Last, but not least, the gateway also represents an easy way to modernize older installations.

Computing module

Unipi Gate is powered by a quad-core 600 MHz ARM A53 CPU and 1 GB RAM which provides the gateway with enough computing performance even for the most challenging applications. It also features onboard 16 GB eMMC memory storage that can be further extended using a microSD card.

Communication interfaces

The gateway features RS485 interface designed for serial communication (e.g. Modbus protocol) and can be used for control and monitoring of various external devices such as boilers, HVAC systems, electric motors, energy meters, other gateways, extension modules, or PLCs from different manufacturers. 

A pair of Ethernet ports with the speed of 1 Gbit and 100 Mbit respectively serve for network communication with the internet or devices in a local network. The gateway can be also used as a network switch (bridge mode) or as a connection node between two separate networks.

Software options

Unipi Gate is based on the open-source Linux OS that provides compatibility with a wide range of commercial and open-source software solutions. By default, the product is delivered with preinstalled Node-RED software - an open and user-friendly platform suitable for rapid development and prototyping that features a wide palette of tools, a clear user interface accessible through a web browser, and cloud services integration. For an example of using Node-RED for reading temperatures and sending them to a cloud platform, please visit the Sending temperatures from Unipi Gate to a ThingsBoard cloud case study.

As an alternative, you can choose an open-source OS image, ie. an archive containing basic software necessary for the operating system to run. Using this image, you can either integrate your software into Unipi Gate or use any supported third-party SW solution. For more info about available software please visit the Choosing the right software guide.
