Advantech ICR-3201

The ICR-3201 wired router & gateway is the perfect way to connect IP or serial devices to a LAN network via WAN interface. Industrial M2M and IoT applications include kiosks, industrial PCs, HMIs, traffic controllers, meters, UPS systems, and much more.

In addition to its two independent Ethernet ports, serial ports RS232 and RS485, ICR-3201 has built-in digital I/O connectivity, backup real-time clock and sleep mode support. An optional built-in modules WiFi with 802.11a,b,g,n,ac modes, 2×2 MIMO support and Bluetooth v5.1 are available.

The ICR-3201 places intelligence at the network edge with a powerful Cortex A8 CPU at 1GHz, 512 MB RAM, and 4 GB EMMC FLASH memory in pSLC mode for a long-lifetime and critical industrial applications. 1.3 GB of memory space is allocated for customer SW applications and data.

With an open Linux-based ICR-OS operating system and wide possibilities of programming customer SW applications in Python, C/C++ or browser-based flow editor Node-RED, or even Docker containers the ICR-3201 offers a real open development platform for Industrial IoT applications.

The Advantech existing Router App library (User modules) with apps already developed to enhance specific router functionality including industrial protocol conversions and support of IoT platforms such as MS Azure, Cumulocity, and others are supported on the router.

The router supports VPN tunnel creation using various protocols to ensure safe communications. The router provides diagnostic functions which include automatic monitoring of the wireless and wired connections, automatic restart in case of connection losses, and a hardware watchdog that monitors the router status.

ICR-3201 is easy to manage using WebAccess/DMP, full-featured cloud- based management, provisioning, and monitoring tool for mass deployment. The WebAccess/VPN is a perfect way how to create secure virtual private networks on the Internet.
