IDY develops the iR800B 10GbE 5G edge gateway

IDY has developed the industrial iR800B 5G edge gateway with 10GbE RJ-45 and SFP+ connectivity.

Background

As 5G devices become faster, wired interfaces and gateway processing can become bottlenecks. Building on IDY’s industrial 5G experience, the iR800B integrates 10GbE, edge processing and multiple communications paths as one field-ready platform.

Key features

• 10GbE RJ-45 and SFP+ connectivity
• 3GPP Release 16 5G NR Sub-6 support
• Edge environment for customer applications
• Industrial design addressing temperature, vibration, shock and noise

Exhibition and evaluation details at announcement

The product will be announced and exhibited at the 10th IoT & Edge Computing Expo Autumn, Japan IT Week, at Makuhari Messe from Wednesday, October 23, 2024 (booth A13-29).

Evaluation at announcement achieved 10Gbps between WAN and LAN and a measured 2.5Gbps over a 5G IP connection. The 5G test used an Anritsu MT8000A with 4×4 MIMO, 2CA and iperf3. Sales are scheduled to begin in Q1 2025.
