Milesight EG71, the next-gen edge IoT gateway for Smart Buildings
Discover the new Milesight EG71 gateway: an IoT edge gateway designed to connect, centralize, and control a building's technical equipment, with a "ready-to-deploy" approach for BMS/BAS projects.
A multi-protocol gateway, truly building-oriented
Key takeaways
-
Connectivity: LoRaWAN, 4G LTE Cat 1, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet to build a resilient architecture (including multi-site).
-
BMS/IoT Protocols: easy integration via Modbus, BACnet, MQTT and HTTP (and, depending on the configurations highlighted, KNX compatibility).
-
Field Interfaces: RS485, KNX, universal I/Os, analog inputs/outputs and relays to connect to heterogeneous equipment (HVAC, metering, sensors, actuators, etc.).
-
Operation & Cybersecurity: advanced VPN (OpenVPN/IPsec/WireGuard), firewall and centralized remote management functions.
-
Software Openness: solid foundation for local automation with Python SDK, Node-RED and Docker.
For what use cases?
The EG71 clearly targets Smart Building projects: technical supervision, energy optimization, retrofit of existing buildings, or consolidation of "field" data before sending it to a BMS or IoT platform.
