The ELX3 ProLinx Edge™ Gateway is designed to combine OT Protocol Conversion with edge computing capabilities to meet your most demanding Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications.
For industrial protocol conversion, the ELX3 supports the ProSoft ELX-EIP-MBTCP protocol gateway container, giving you the ability to do protocol gateway conversion for EtherNet/IP to Modbus TCP/IP. Built on the field proven ProSoft communication gateway solutions and as an EtherNet/IP ODVA conformance tested solution, this protocol gateway container solves many OT protocol conversion needs.
The ELX3 additionally provides the ability to run Docker containers providing the flexibility to run custom code for advanced applications such as machine learning, predictive maintenance, or custom protocol drivers.
With hardware supporting an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C as well as Class 1 Div 2 ratings, this Edge gateway is designed to withstand harsh industrial environments.
The new ProLinx Edge™ ELX3 module provides OT protocol conversion and the ability to concurrently run custom Docker container applications all in a single hardware platform designed to withstand harsh conditions.
