Robustel’s LG5100 series is a new generation of industrial LoRaWAN gateway, supporting global 4G/3G/2G networks for cellular backhaul. This gateway runs with a fully-fledged Debian Operating System, capable of supporting thousands of existing and new ARMv7 (Raspberry Pi compatible) based applications.
The LG5100 utilizes RobustOS Pro, an IoT gateway operating system developed by Robustel based on Debian 11 (Bullseye). This user-friendly platform enables customers to create edge computing applications tailored to their needs, supporting various programming languages, including C, C++, Python, Java, and Node.js. Users can also download the latest applications through the Robustel Cloud Manager Service (RCMS), addressing the diverse requirements of fragmented IoT deployments. LG5100 supports Docker for simplified application deployment while benefiting from RobustOS Pro’s enhanced cybersecurity, advanced GUI, and a wide range of software features, including VPNs, Smart Roaming, and SMS remote control.
