Network Products
An IoT network connects various devices to collect, process, and exchange data. Networks play a crucial role in applications such as smart homes, Industry 4.0, healthcare, and smart infrastructure.
Data is gathered by edge devices, such as sensors, and in the case of edge computing devices, it is often processed locally as well. The data packets then need to be forwarded for analysis, either within the network or to the cloud. This is where networking products like routers, gateways, and switches come into play. They provide an efficient, secure, and scalable infrastructure for communication between devices and with the cloud.
Router
A router connects local networks to the internet and forwards data packets, for example, to the cloud. When selecting a suitable router, it is important to consider the bandwidth, which should match the data volume to be transmitted, as well as the router's security measures to protect the network from unauthorized access.
Gateways
Gateways connect different, incompatible devices or networks with each other. They convert data formats so that devices and networks can communicate. Essentially acting as "translators," gateways also enhance network security through encryption and access control.
Switches
Switches manage data traffic within a local network. They direct data packets specifically between devices, optimizing network performance through efficient bandwidth usage. Switches enable the integration of multiple devices into a network without them interfering with each other.
Routers, gateways, and switches form the foundation for seamless integration and functionality of IoT devices and are essential components of modern IoT networks.
