Tosibox, known for its awarded industrial communication technology, has introduced its next generation lock device which provides a totally new level of IoT connectivity. Launched at the SPS IPC Drives 2017 exhibition, the TOSIBOX® Lock 500 is a high-end connectivity device bringing unprecedented possibilities for customers to manage their operations and to build new IoT solutions. The Lock 500 has up to 90 Mbit/s encrypted VPN throughput, built-in LTE modem and Digital I/O. The Lock 500 is ideal for demanding industrial environments and opens new opportunities in security and office networking sectors.

“We are proud to step into a totally new level of IoT connectivity with this product. The Lock 500 is a big step towards a full IoT solution. The Lock includes much anticipated performance improvements and new features which not only serve our industrials customers, but also open doors to new customer segments. At the same time we continue to offer the highest level of security and our unique, easy to set-up Plug & Go™ technology”, says Tosibox CEO Tero Lepistö.

Secure and scalable remote access infrastructure is paramount for IoT solutions. With its patented Lock and Key technology Tosibox creates a fully secure remote connection between devices. Devices connected to the TOSIBOX® Locks are securely accessed over the Internet through an encrypted VPN connection. The new Lock 500 is compatible with the existing TOSIBOX® products, and the customers’ remote access infrastructure can be built cost effectively by utilizing multiple components.

”The new Lock 500 is a perfect match for industrial customers who will directly benefit from new features such as industrial power connector, integrated DIN rail mounting bracket and industrial housing. I am also excited about new business opportunities in the IT and security services. For example massive VPN throughput is ideal for remote video streaming of security cameras. This new product can also be utilized for connecting demanding IT network infrastructures and for building more affordable remote business solutions”, Lepistö believes.

The new product will be available in early 2018 depending on the related approvals.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
