Beijer Electronics' EG500 Mk2 Redefines Industrial Edge Performance

Edge computing for smart factories and advanced industrial automation
The EG500 Mk2 from Beijer Electronics is engineered for industrial environments that demand rapid, secure, and reliable edge processing. By offering higher performance and broader integration capabilities than traditional gateways, it addresses the growing need for responsive automation, robust cybersecurity, and seamless cloud communication in modern production facilities.

High-performance processing for complex workloads
Powered by an Intel Atom x6413E processor and 8 GB RAM, the gateway supports real-time automation, data processing, and analytics directly at the edge. Native Docker support allows container-based applications to run smoothly, enabling flexible deployment and faster adaptation to changing industrial requirements.

Secure, cloud-ready architecture for connected operations
Security remains central to the EG500 Mk2’s design, with an integrated firewall, TPM-backed secure provisioning, and full compatibility with Azure IoT Hub, Azure IoT Edge, and AWS services. This combination ensures strong data protection while maintaining reliable connectivity between operational technology systems and cloud platforms.

Industrial operating system built for resilience
Running on Welotec egOS—an industrial-grade Linux distribution—the gateway provides stability, long-term support, and consistent security enhancements. Its robust update and patching framework helps ensure uninterrupted, mission-critical operation.

Next-generation HMI integration for modern factories
When paired with WebIQ, the EG500 Mk2 supports intuitive web-based HMIs that run directly on the gateway. This headless approach simplifies deployment and removes the need for traditional operator panels.

Future-proof design for evolving industrial needs
With its rugged build, powerful processing capabilities, strong security posture, and flexible application deployment, the EG500 Mk2 positions Beijer Electronics as a leading provider of next-generation industrial edge solutions for the smart factories of tomorrow.
