Robustel LG5100
Industrial LoRaWAN gateway with 4G/LTE and Edge Computing.
The Robustel LG5100 is an industrial LoRaWAN gateway with integrated edge computing. Built on RobustOS Pro (Debian 11), it runs containerized apps (Docker) and supports C/C++/Python/Node.js development.
Choose your architecture: forward packets to external LNSs using standard packet forwarders, or run an embedded LoRaWAN network server for on-prem control. Global LoRaWAN band support and 8-channel concurrent reception suit dense sensor estates.
For backhaul, dual-SIM 4G with 3G/2G fallback, plus Ethernet WAN with link backup and ICMP detection, keep data flowing.
The gateway exposes rich interfaces dual RS-232/RS-485, 2×DI and 2×DO for bridging wired devices alongside LoRa sensors. Operations scale with RCMS for fleet monitoring, configuration and updates, while VPN options and Smart Roaming strengthen security and resilience.
In short: a flexible, edge-capable LoRaWAN gateway that connects sensors reliably to your platforms and simplifies large-estate management.
LNS INTEGRATION
Support for UDP, LoRa Basics™ Station, LORIOT and an Internal Chirpstack LNS.
LoRaWAN BACKHAUL
Add Dual-SIM redundant cellular and Wi-Fi back-haul to your LoRaWAN Network.
Edge2Cloud READY
Seamlessly integrate wired and wireless sensors with the cloud via Robustel Edge2Cloud.
OPERATING SYSTEM
RobustOS Pro – Full Linux Debian Operating System for hosting IoT applications.
RCMS ON-BOARD
RCMS Cloud device management enabled for enhanced scalability.
Example LG5100 Use Cases
Smart Farming/Agriculture
Connect soil moisture, weather, and tank-level sensors via LoRa; LTE/Ethernet backhaul with buffering; forward data to your farm platform; optionally run edge preprocessing in Docker.
Utility Submetering
Collect LoRa pulse data from water, gas, and electricity meters; resilient cellular/Ethernet backhaul with buffering; forward to billing/SCADA; manage gateways centrally with RCMS.
Industrial Facilities Monitoring
Link IAQ, temperature, vibration, and occupancy sensors over LoRa; choose your LNS; LTE backhaul maintains continuity; integrate wired instruments via RS-232/RS-485 alongside LoRa.
