We are today launching the new RTCU NX-200!

The RTCU NX-200 is the most advanced automotive IIoT Gateway product available on the market today.
Based on the successful hardware architecture from the RTCU NX-400, it features an added range of sophisticated automotive features like a full-motion sensor suite, dual CAN bus interfaces, World-wide LTE, and a slick aluminium encapsulation with a clear reference to the popular RTCU MX2 turbo!

The RTCU NX-200 is based on the NX32L (NX32 for Linux) architecture, which embraces many new technologies and at the same time maintains full backward compatibility, which ensures already implemented and tested NX32 applications can execute without changes.

The RTCU NX-200 device is designed to meet the ever-increasing challenges on security, in that it offers full TLS on all major protocols and includes a hardened protected execution environment with dual-boot and automatic fallback and recovery.
 

The RTCU NX-200 device is an automotive-grade device that is designed from the ground up for professional M2M / IIoT applications with its strong on-board I/O capabilities and multiple communication interfaces such as World-wide cellular LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Classic / Low-Energy, Dual CAN bus, Ethernet, dual RS232, RS485, and 1-Wire.

The RTCU NX-200 also sports two USB host port interfaces allowing for expansion of the device with accessories such as RFID reader, additional Ethernet port, and additional RS232/RS485 ports.

The on-board I/O system can be expanded almost indefinitely and completely transparently by adding Modbus I/O modules.

The RTCU NX-200 is fully software and hardware compatible with the RTCU MX2 turbo.
