EDGE101 is an all-in-one IoT programmable controller based on the ESP32 core, integrating essential communication interfaces such as RS485, CAN bus, and Ethernet. It is designed for developers seeking a powerful integrated solution to learn and deploy complex IoT applications based on the popular ESP32 and Arduino platforms. It features industrial communication interfaces and an industrial-grade design.
Industrial Expansion Interfaces and Flexible Deployment
ESP32 and Arduino are among the most popular hardware and development platforms for developers. They offer excellent performance and a rich open-source ecosystem. Developers have created tens of thousands of innovative IoT applications based on ESP32.
However, most current ESP32 development boards only provide basic I/O functions and lack practical deployment interfaces such as RS485, CAN bus, and Ethernet. This results in significant functional limitations for common ESP32 development boards, both for learning and real-world applications.
Multi-Function Expansion and Easy Deployment
EDGE101 integrates RS485, CAN bus, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RTC, and other functions within a robust metal enclosure, and supports PCIe slot expansion for 4G communication. It provides flexible and comprehensive IoT control capabilities.
It also offers 11 native ESP32 GPIOs and 3 I2C interfaces, enabling you to complete IoT learning and deployment on a single device.
Industrial-Grade Reliability and Protection
Most ESP32 development boards on the market lack adequate protection mechanisms. As a result, many ESP32 boards are limited to desktop testing and are difficult to deploy directly in IoT projects.
EDGE101 is designed according to industrial standards and uses a high-quality metal enclosure for protection. It features comprehensive isolation protection, ESD protection, lightning protection, overvoltage protection, reverse polarity protection, and supports a wide power input range of 9V–26V. It also supports multiple mounting options such as DIN rail and wall mounting.
Whether deployed in gardens, rooftops, garages, or electrical rooms, EDGE101 can operate reliably and flexibly.
