IoT
One of the new challenges arising with the use of edge, fog, and cloud architectures is the connection of components to each other and to the public cloud. An important element of developing a solution capturing all pieces is the IoT framework susietec
At the field, or edge level, data is collected by industrial computers, e.g. by gateways, which process, filter, analyze and act on these data in real-time right at the device.
Edge, fog and cloud applications demand increasing computing power. The interfaces to sensors or machines often require non-standard solutions. Especially in smaller machines, space is limited or restricted in some dimension and need a special solution.
Today, the connection from the sensor device to the embedded cloud takes place via real-time data communication, on sensor and edge level - for example Industrial Ethernet or fieldbuses - and gateways , which provide the transformation of real time data into the informational area.

IEC60601-1 Compliant Kontron PCIe Medical LAN Card
Gigabit LAN card for direct connection of IT equipment to medical devices
Eching, Germany, June 01, 2010 – Today Kontron announced the PCIe Medical LAN Card, an IEC60601-1 compliant PCIe Gigabit Ethernet card, which can be used for the direct network connection of conventional IT equipment to medical devices. With this card, expensive medical LAN isolators, which otherwise would have to be inserted between the LAN port and a medical device, are no longer needed lowering costs and simplifying overall system design
The new Kontron PCIe Medical LAN Card will find applications in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, doctor’s offices, and anywhere where medical devices are connected to conventional workstations or to high-availability archiving, backup, and storage solutions. In order to transmit data between medical devices and systems via Ethernet to non-medical devices in an office or hospital network, the LAN card needs a galvanic separation according to the IEC60601-1 standard, which has already been engineered into the new Kontron PCIe Medical LAN card.
The PCIe 2.0 compliant Kontron PCIe Medical LAN Card is suitable for installation in any PCI Express® x1 compatible card slot. Matching slot brackets for full-height or low-profile assembly are included. The long-term available Kontron PCIe Medical LAN Card features either one or two isolated Ethernet 1000Base-T interfaces on RJ45 connectors. Both variants are based on the Intel® 82574L GbE controller, which ensures a particularly high level of compatibility and high transfer rates.
Availability:
The Kontron PCIe Medical LAN Card is available now. Operating system support is provided for all Windows operating systems from Windows XP/Windows 2000 on and also for Linux Kernel from 2.4.18 on.
