Integrating IIoT & Cloud with PLC Panels: Beskytte’s Smart Edge Approach

In today’s fast-paced industrial world, it’s no longer enough to simply automate. The real power lies in connecting machines, processes, and people—in real time. This is where Beskytte steps in with its Smart Edge approach, enabling industries to integrate IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) and cloud platforms seamlessly with their PLC-based systems.

We help industries move from isolated, hardware-centric automation to connected, intelligent ecosystems—ready for Industry 4.0.

How Beskytte Integrates IIoT & Cloud with PLC Panels

1. Smart Edge Gateways

Beskytte installs intelligent gateways at your control panel level that:

  • Collect data from PLCs, HMIs, and field instruments

  • Perform edge-level processing and filtering

  • Connect securely to cloud platforms via 4G/5G, WiFi, or Ethernet

  • Support MQTT, REST API, and OPC UA protocols

These devices eliminate the need for constant human intervention and bring real-time data to your fingertips.

2. Cloud-Enabled Dashboards

Our customized cloud interfaces offer:

  • Live process visualization

  • Equipment status and health indicators

  • Historical trends and event logs

  • Alerts via SMS/email for critical thresholds

  • User access control for teams and managers

Whether you're on-site or halfway across the globe, you stay connected to your plant 24/7.

3. IIoT-Ready PLC Systems

We upgrade or design PLC systems with:

  • Built-in Ethernet and serial ports
