Introduction
The RTCU LX5 pro is a powerful M2M/IoT Gateway device that rests on an entirely new hardware
and software architecture representing a significant leap in functionality, power, openness, and
performance. The RTCU LX5 pro has been designed for the most demanding M2M and Industrial
Internet of Things applications that dictate the most advanced product available on the market.
The device is based on the new NX32L (NX32 for Linux) architecture that embraces many new
technologies and at the same time maintains full backward compatibility, which ensures already
implemented and tested NX32 applications can execute without changes.
The RTCU LX5 pro device has been designed to meet the ever-increasing security challenges. It
offers full TLS on all major protocols and includes a hardened protected execution environment
with dual-boot and automatic fallback and recovery.
The RTCU LX5 pro can also operate as a secure and intelligent industrial router/firewall for
LAN/WLAN side clients connecting to the Internet over the cellular interface.
This manual contains technical documentation covering the installation and usage of the RTCU
LX5 pro device. For detailed information on the product's programming and software
configuration, please refer to the RTCU IDE documentation.
For detailed information on the powerful RTCU M2M Platform, please refer to the
RTCU M2M Platform datasheet.
