We’re excited to introduce Moxa’s new portfolio of x86 industrial computers (IPCs) designed to meet the growing demand in the industrial sector for data connectivity and real-time processing at the industrial edge. As more industries embrace the digital transformation train, the need for reliable IPCs is soaring. That’s where Moxa’s new BXP, DRP, and RKP […]
We’re thrilled to announce that MSI TEC has been awarded the prestigious 2023 Platinum Award for Global Sales Growth at Moxa’s Global Distribution Summit in Taiwan. MSI TEC received the award for achieving the highest percentage growth of any Moxa distributor on the planet with over $5M in sales, which is by far one of […]
Industrial wireless technology is changing the world as we know it, driving the development of unmanned and remote capabilities to facilitate autonomous and mobile operations in various applications such as material handling, medical care, manufacturing, and mining. Compact mobile machines equipped with complex sensing and computing capabilities such as Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) open up […]
Since its launch last month, we’ve been taking the new Moxa EDS-G4000 Ethernet switch out to our customers. They’re impressed with the built-in security, IEC certification, and much more. Here’s the top 5 features that they like most. 1.) Security. The EDS-G4000 is built around a new operating system with built-in hardened security. It’s the […]
As OT (Operational Technology) networks converge with IT networks, network security is a serious concern. OT systems that used to be air-gapped must still protect network communications without interrupting operations. To protect your industrial networks and critical assets, you need a secure network infrastructure with powerful secure routers to build solid network segmentation. The following […]
As more OT and IT networks converge, there are several attack surfaces emerging in industrial control systems. Some are known vulnerabilities, but there are also some that are unknown. That’s why it’s important that everyone from management to individual users join forces to support industrial cybersecurity from the edge to the cloud. Here are 5 […]
IIoT gateways act as a gate or bridge between OT devices and the cloud in IoT and IIoT applications. Since they often need to process the bulk of ingress and egress data, they are more exposed to cybersecurity threats than other devices. For this reason, it is extremely important to keep your IIoT gateway software […]

With the increase of industrial IoT (IIoT) applications, the gateways that sit between the “things” and the Internet have become extremely important. A gateway acquires data from sensors and actuators in the field, and then transfers the data to the cloud, enabling smooth data flow from field to cloud. To ensure the stability of the […]
Unmanaged switches are used in very small, basic networks with less than a dozen connected devices and don’t require a high level of security and performance. Managed switches are fully configurable and offer security settings to protect the network. Because they provide flexibility and control, they are ideal for networks that require reliability and security, […]
Over the past few years, countries that lack the land mass required for solar plants are turning their attention to the water-based alternative, floating solar islands. By placing solar panels on floating platforms in water bodies, valuable land is freed. As the cooling properties of water allow the panels to perform well even in high […]
The automated material handling equipment market is expected to grow tremendously in the near future*. While this trend is anticipated, it recently accelerated in the spring of 2020 as a result of two significant driving forces. Namely, the expansion of e-commerce businesses and the social distancing measures imposed on shop floors. In recent years, e-commerce […]
The transformation to Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has increased the demand on network nodes to enable connected systems. Although some network nodes can use unmanaged switches that feature basic management functions to minimize network complexity and administration effort, other situations may still require managed switches, which continue to play an […]
