Dell Edge Gateway 5000 Series

Today’s often highly complex network structures rely on gateways for trouble-free connection between computer networks and data centres. The Dell Edge Gateway 5000 Series is a system that collects, secures, analyses and acts on data from multiple disparate devices and sensors. It serves to communicate meaningful data to back-end systems in the cloud, control room or data centre. As one representative of the Dell Internet of Things (IoT) Gateways, the system is equipped with ample processing power and provides flexibility to perform analytics throughout an IoT ecosystem but especially at the edge of a distributed network, closer to the devices and sensors. It was designed for installation in distributed locations. Much like a PC, this gateway allows all peripherals and sensors to be attached easily. Like servers and routers, this gateway was designed to run continuously without interruption. It operates in headless fashion without regular human interaction such as via screens or keyboards. Coming in a solid enclosure primarily constructed from die-cast and extruded aluminium, it lends itself to being wall-mounted like a utility box or a typical electrical panel. Thanks to its overall consistent design concept, this gateway blends in perfectly into contemporary network scenarios – its distinctive design idiom conveys high competence.
