Digi ConnectPort X4 Gateway
Industrial-grade Digi XBee to IP gateway
Digi XBee to Ethernet gateway
Customizable, low-cost Digi XBee to Ethernet gateways offer easy IP networking of RF devices and sensor networks.
Digi ConnectPort X4 customizable Cellular M2M gateways offer a variety of LAN/WAN interface options for end-to-end networking of remote devices. The gateways include comprehensive IP protocols and IPSec VPN support for high-end routing and security. The easy DIA/Python development environment enables custom applications to run locally while interfacing across cellular networks for WAN connectivity to a centralized server.
Digi ConnectPort X4 gateways feature a compact commercial-grade enclosure or an optional outdoors IP66/NEMA 4X enclosure. Interface options include Ethernet, serial, and Zigbee/RF for flexible connectivity to virtually any remote device.
All ConnectPort X4 gateways feature an end-to-end development environment using comprehensive Digi ESP™ IDE and DIA/Python programming languages. Gain critical insights into your deployed devices and manage your network with Digi Remote Manager®. Digi Remote Manager (Digi RM) is a cloud-based solution that facilitates easy setup, mass configuration, maintenance, and support for hundreds or even thousands of remote Digi devices.
