Purpose-built for Industry 4.0 use cases, the Digi IX40 router provides global 5G and LTE connectivity with edge intelligence and real-time processing. The IoT cellular router allows enterprises to seamlessly connect multiple wired or wireless machines in demanding environments. It also optimizes the integration of cloud-delivered operational technology with information technology to enable network-wide visibility, monitoring, and control.
The IX40 provides edge intelligence by placing computing power in the device at the edge of the enterprise network where the data is collected. Processing sensor data immediately and closer to where it is generated (instead of sending it to the cloud), reduces latency. The router’s built-in computing power and integrated memory enable rapid machine-to-machine communication and robust real-time data processing.
Other Digi IX40 features include:
- FIPS 140-2 validation for encryption of sensitive data
- Ethernet, SFP, serial, I/O, and Modbus bridging
- Failover options like fiber and 4G LTE for redundancy
- GNSS receiver supporting GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo
- License-free enterprise software: VPN, firewall, logging, and authentication
- Digi Remote Manager for mass configuration and management of remote assets
Typical applications for the Digi IX40 router include advanced robotics, predictive maintenance, asset monitoring, industrial automation, and smart manufacturing. FirstNet-capable models are available for critical applications that require emergency response.
