Introduction
Bridge the gap between ESP32 development and real-world IoT deployment. The EDGE101 is an industrial ESP32 programmable controller integrating essential communication interfaces like RS485, CAN bus, and Ethernet. Designed for developers seeking a robust, all-in-one solution for learning and deploying complex IoT applications based on the popular ESP32 and Arduino platforms.
Robust Industrial Connectivity & ESP32 Power
Seamlessly integrate into industrial environments with built-in isolated RS485 and CAN bus interfaces, plus Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. All powered by the versatile ESP32 dual-core processor for reliable IoT controller performance.
Industrial-Grade Reliability & Protection
Housed in a durable metal casing, the EDGE101 offers comprehensive isolation protection, anti-static, lightning, overvoltage, and reverse polarity protection. Ensures stable operation from 9V-26V DC in demanding environments, from rooftops to factory floors.
Versatile Expansion and Easy Deployment
Adapt to diverse project needs with a PCIe slot for 4G LTE modules, 11 native ESP32 GPIOs, 3 I2C interfaces, and a TF card slot for local data storage. Multiple mounting options, including DIN rail, facilitate flexible installation.
