D-Link launches 5G NR M2M Industrial Gateway for Critical IoT and Industry 4.0
Ideal for transportation, manufacturing, agriculture and energy industries, or wherever real-time data collection over 5G is necessary
The DWM-3010 is ideal for transportation, manufacturing, agriculture and energy industries, or wherever real-time data collection over 5G is necessary.
Fresh off the back of its global announcements at 2023 Mobile World Congress (MWC), D-Link Australia has launched the DWM-3010 5G NR M2M Dual SIM Industrial Gateway, the latest in its range of 4G/5G network innovations, specifically designed for enterprises and SMBs to address critical IoT connectivity demands and to help drive new efficiencies in the current digital revolution known as Industry 4.0.
Industry 4.0 demands large-scale deployment of sensors and monitors throughout smart factories, warehouses, transportation fleets, EV charging stations and other industrial settings. The DWM-3010 5G M2M Industrial Gateway facilitates private network deployments to ensure low latency for near-instantaneous M2M communications.
The DWM-3010 enjoys dual SIM slots as well as band support for all major 5G networks in both Australia and New Zealand, along with support for industry standard IoT/M2M field communication protocols such as Virtual COM, Modbus and MQTT. As such, the DWM-3010 M2M Industrial Gateway enables an extensive range of IoT devices to communicate efficiently with one another.
Boasting a robust and rugged design, the DWM-3010 is ideal for smart industrial applications and can withstand wide temperature ranges from as low as -30°C, ideal for use in cold storage facilities, and up to a sweltering 60°C, ideal for use in hot transportation, energy, mining or agricultural environments.
D-Link A/NZ MD, Graeme Reardon, said, “Industry digitalisation continues to advance at an exponential rate and businesses need to have the infrastructure in place to deliver real-time services via reliable wireless connectivity. With the DWM-3010, D-Link expands 5G to Industrial IoT by offering 5G private networks that provide ultra-high speeds with virtually unlimited capacity for high bandwidth and low-latency services.”
D-Link’s reliable and secure 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) is a competitive option against traditional fixed-line broadband services, which are often challenging to manage and expensive to deploy in many environments. 5G FWA also opens up new opportunities for mobile operators to deliver managed voice, video, data and IoT services.
In addition to the new DWM-3010 5G NR M2M Gateway, D-Link offers a range of enterprise products allowing construction of bespoke solutions powered by robust 5G private networks, including Data Centre Switches, Surveillance Cameras and Access Points.
Reardon concluded, “With the DWM-3010 5G NR M2M Gateway, users can connect large numbers of devices with fast 5G network connectivity in harsh working environments, and with the industrial-grade feature set needed for efficient and robust communication between them in virtually any setting. Remote, centralised management of the DWM-3010 5G NR M2M Gateway is particularly easy when combining it with the D-Link Edge Cloud Solution, or D-ECS.”
The D-Link Edge Cloud Solution (D-ECS) has been developed for customers that have use cases and applications where connectivity status, GPS tracking and route history are critical to their business. D-ECS provides a complete managed cellular and wireless network management solution whereby 4G-LTE and 5G NR M2M network devices such as the new DWM-3010 5G NR M2M Gateway are controlled through the D-ECS Management Platform, accessible via a dedicated Web Portal. Monitoring and management tasks can be carried out through the platform for any device, site, or network anywhere in the world, with multi-tenancy enabled, and device scalability unlimited.
