From April 9–11, Gateworks presented its state-of-the-art technology kit – Wi-Fi 6 Development Kit – GW11048-5-A at the Embedded World 2024 expo in Nuremberg, Germany.
The Wi-Fi 6 Development Kit – GW11048-5-A was only available through element14 during the event as it is the only distributor chosen for the kit.
The Gateworks Wi-Fi 6 Development Kit offers developers a smooth, out-of-the-box assessment experience while easing the validation process for the Silex SX-SDMAX and SX-PCEAX Wi-Fi 6 radios. For a wide range of industrial applications, including predictive maintenance, improved logistics, and remote real-time monitoring, it provides ruggedized wireless connectivity.
This latest innovation in the Gateworks Wi-Fi 6 Development Kit comes with a pre-loaded Linux system and all the necessary accessories to get started quickly.
Key features of the Development Kit include:
- Supports Silex SX-SDMAX and SX-PCEAX Wi-Fi 6 radios (radios not included)
- Includes Venice GW7200 Single Board Computer (SBC) with pre-loaded Linux drivers
- Onboard NXP i.MX8M Mini processor (1.6 GHz quad-core)
- 8GB eMMC flash storage and 1GB LPDDR4 DRAM
- Two Gigabit Ethernet ports and two Mini-PCIe expansion slots
- Multiple connectivity options including MicroSD, Nano SIM, I2C, SPI, and serial ports
- Real-time clock, voltage and temperature monitoring
- Wide input voltage range (8 to 60VDC) with PoE support
- Operates in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C
“We are thrilled to provide Gateworks’ WI-FI 6 development kit to our customers. This cutting-edge technology is a game-changer for those seeking to develop and deploy IoT applications and systems. We look forward to seeing its capabilities showcased at the exhibition and support our customers with all their development needs”, said Romain Soreau, Head of Single Board Computing at element14.
In addition to the Wi-Fi 6 Development Kit, element14 also offers Gateworks Corporation’s complete line of products for industrial applications.
Gateworks highlighted their line of railway solutions at Embedded World. The solutions are aimed at enhancing the efficiency and safety of rail yards, such as rugged Gateworks Single Board Computers (SBCs) combined with a variety of wireless options such as high-precision GNSS Mini-PCIe cards.
