PHPoC IoT Gateway

Buy a Programmable IoT Gateway (PHPoC) for Custom Edge Logic & Industrial Integration

Need more than a standard protocol converter? A programmable gateway is built for projects where you must collect data, pre-process it, and send it securely to your systems — exactly in the format you need. Sollae PHPoC gateways are designed to help engineers and businesses build custom gateways and commercial/industrial IoT products faster (without re-inventing hardware).

Why teams buy Sollae PHPoC programmable gateways
  • Programmable IoT gateway with an embedded PHPoC interpreter to implement custom data handling and logic.
  • Industrial-ready hardware (wide temperature operation on the gateway series) for real deployments.
  • Built-in web server + user-customizable webpages for remote control/monitoring via browser.
  • Secure networking support across the lineup (IPv4/IPv6 + TLS-capable stacks) to fit modern IT requirements.
  • Right-sized models: serial (RS232 / RS485), analog input, digital input, relay output, and PT100 temperature.

What a Custom Gateway Is Used For in Practice (Who Needs It Most)

A custom gateway is typically purchased when “off-the-shelf” gateways can’t match your data format, workflow, or UI needs. These devices are especially valuable for:

  • System integrators building repeatable solutions across multiple sites (edge logic + browser UI).
  • IT/OT teams modernizing legacy serial or field devices without deploying a full industrial PC stack.
  • OEMs & product teams who want a programmable base for a commercial device (faster time-to-market).
  • Operations & facility owners who need reliable remote visibility/control with tailored rules and alerts.
Real-world examples:
  • Reformat serial sensor output into your ERP/SCADA-friendly structure before forwarding.
  • Implement local “if-this-then-that” rules (edge decisions) before sending data upstream.
  • Create a simple browser-based panel to monitor values and trigger actions remotely.

PHPoC Programmable Gateway vs. “Generic Gateways” (Where Sollae Wins)

Many gateway alternatives fall into two buckets: (1) fixed-function protocol converters, or (2) more complex Linux gateways that require heavier maintenance. Sollae’s PHPoC programmable gateway approach is purpose-built for fast customization:

  • Write edge logic in PHPoC to pre-process data and control behavior without building an entire software stack.
  • Deploy a custom web UI using the built-in web server (great for commissioning & ongoing operations).
  • Security & modern networking support (IPv4/IPv6 + TLS-capable networking options across the series).

RS232 / RS485 / Ethernet Programmable Gateway Options for Legacy Devices

If your modernization project starts with legacy interfaces, choose a serial programmable IoT gateway and decide where the logic lives: on a server, or right on the gateway (recommended when you want resilience, low latency, and fewer dependencies).

Quick pick:
  • RS232 device? Start with P5H-151.
  • RS485/RS422 device? Choose P5H-152 (wide baud-rate support).
  • Signals instead of serial? Go for the I/O models below (analog, digital input, relay output, PT100).

Choose the Right Programmable Gateway: Serial vs Analog vs Digital I/O (Comparison)

Model / Type What it connects Best for
Programmable RS232 Gateway
P5H-151
RS232 serial devices → Ethernet programmable gateway (custom parsing, forwarding, control) Legacy instruments, controllers, serial sensors that need custom data formatting or edge rules
Programmable RS485 / RS422 Gateway
P5H-152
RS422/RS485 serial devices → Ethernet programmable gateway (wide baud-rate range) Industrial RS485 devices where you need custom logic or a browser UI for control & monitoring
Programmable Analog Input Gateway
P5H-153
4× analog inputs (select 0–5V or 0–20mA) → Ethernet programmable gateway Pressure/level/flow transmitters, analog sensors, threshold logic + preprocessing before upload
Programmable Digital Input Gateway
P5H-154
4× digital inputs (dry/wet contact + NPN/PNP) → Ethernet programmable gateway Status/alarm monitoring, contact inputs, machine state signals, custom event rules and logging
Programmable Relay Output Gateway
P5H-155
2× relay outputs (NO/NC, DC 30V/2A resistive) → Ethernet programmable gateway Remote switching, interlocks, custom automation logic, controlled actions from web UI
Programmable Temperature Gateway
P5H-156
3-wire PT100 temperature sensor + on-device LED display → Ethernet programmable gateway Process temperature monitoring, cold-chain checks, threshold alerts + custom reporting formats

Security & Networking for Industrial Deployments (Order-Ready)

For EU industrial projects, networking and security are usually the make-or-break factor. The PHPoC gateway lineup supports modern IP stacks (including IPv4/IPv6) and secure transport capabilities (TLS-capable stacks), so you can integrate into contemporary IT environments.

  • Ethernet connectivity for stable cabinet and site installations.
  • Web-based setup & access for commissioning and daily operations.
  • Security features (password protection + TLS-capable protocol stacks across the line).

Why Sollae PHPoC Gateways Beat “DIY Boards” and Heavy Industrial PCs

Competitors often position “programmable” as either a dev board for prototyping or a more complex gateway computer. Sollae’s approach sits in the sweet spot: industrial casing + programmable runtime + practical I/O choices.

  • Faster time-to-value: write the script, upload, deploy — no hardware redesign cycle for common use cases.
  • Industrial conditions: wide operating temperature range on the gateways (built for harsh sites).
  • Less maintenance than full PCs: purpose-built gateway hardware instead of a general-purpose compute stack.
  • Commercial-friendly: create a branded/custom web UI and logic for customer-facing deployments.

Programmable Gateway Buyer Checklist (Before You Order)

  • What do you connect? RS232 (P5H-151), RS485/RS422 (P5H-152), analog (P5H-153), digital input (P5H-154), relay output (P5H-155), PT100 (P5H-156).
  • Do you need local decisions? Choose a programmable IoT gateway when you want edge rules, filtering, custom formatting, or local fallbacks.
  • Remote UI required? If operators need a browser panel, prioritize models where you’ll use the embedded web server + custom pages.
  • Security requirements? Plan for TLS-capable protocols and secure access patterns from day one (especially in multi-site rollouts).
  • Signals vs serial? Don’t force RS485/RS232 if the job is really DI/DO/AI/temperature — pick the right I/O model and simplify wiring.

Ready to buy? Choose your programmable gateway above — or start with a serial model if your goal is to modernize a legacy device while keeping full control over the data format and integration path.
