In the era of 5G, the Internet of everything comes into being. The frequency band used by the 150M router is 2.4HZ, and 5G is 5HZ, which is commonly known as gigabit wireless router. In comparison, the 5G frequency band has the advantages of stronger anti-interference, more stable signal, wider coverage, and higher bottleneck of data transmission. So what are the requirements for 5G industrial routers?
What are the requirements for industrial 5G routers?
First: Normativeness of communication interfaces
In the process of designing industrial-grade 5G routers, designers need to standardize the communication interface between the modular structures of the equipment. The maintenance and update of industrial-grade 5G router modules and the addition of new modules should not affect other communication modules of the components. In addition, industrial 5G router software should have a high fault tolerance capacity, so that generally small software failures should not cause all kinds of serious systems to restart.
Second: Relative independence
The data and processing program configurated in the design process of stable industrial 4G router should have relative independence, and any change of configuration data should not cause the change of device running version program to facilitate the compatibility of the processing program with any configuration data. In addition, industrial 5G routers should also be designed to protect against other programs.
Third: Device update
Industrial 5G routers are designed to change configuration data when adding or reducing device capacity, and only need to apply general human-machine commands to affect normal communication. What’s more, industrial 5G routers should have monitoring functions for software operation failures. Once an industrial 5G router has a major failure such as an infinite loop, it should be able to automatically restart and issue an immediate fault report.
The industrial 5G router provides users with powerful edge computing performance, using ARM Cortex-A8 processor, 1GHz clock speed, memory up to 1GB DDR3 memory and 8GB eMMC FLASH. Provide computing resources for edge node data optimization, real-time response, agile connection, intelligent application, security and privacy protection, and effectively share the cloud computing resource load.
With a Python development platform, users can implement customized APP applications based on their own business. For a wide range of applications in the Internet of Things, the edge computing gateway is compatible with a wide range of mainstream industrial real-time Ethernet protocols and industrial bus protocols, supporting the following protocols: Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, OPC UA, PROFINET, PROFIBUS-DP, EtherCAT, EtherNET/IP , CC-LINK, PPI and other protocols.
The arrival of 5G means opening the door to an industrial Internet of Things, and the characteristics of the connected products will hasten the emergence of new industry operators, thus reshaping an industry. Great possibilities will be released for high-end manufacturing, tele-medicine and driverless development.
