# MacEdge CX10 Industrial Edge Gateway & Data Acquisition Controller Datasheet

## Product Overview

**MacEdge CX10** is an industrial-grade **Edge Gateway and Data Acquisition Controller** designed to connect field sensors, industrial instruments, and automation equipment directly to the cloud and SCADA systems. Built for high I/O density and reliable industrial communication, CX308 combines **Ethernet**, **RS485 (Modbus RTU)**, and multiple **digital and analog I/O channels** in a single rugged device — making it ideal for machine monitoring, process automation, and remote telemetry applications.

With **1 × Ethernet port**, **1 × RS485**, **8 × Digital Inputs (DI)**, **8 × Digital Outputs (DO)**, and **8 × Analog Inputs (AI)**, MacEdge CX10 can acquire data from a wide range of sensors and equipment such as energy meters, flow meters, pressure transmitters, motor panels, pumps, and industrial PLC systems. It supports real-time control through digital outputs and enables event-based automation for critical operations.

For distributed deployments, MacEdge CX10 offers optional **4G LTE cellular** and **Wi‑Fi connectivity**, allowing stable data transmission even in remote sites where wired network access is unavailable. With edge intelligence capabilities, secure data delivery, and flexible cloud integration, **MacEdge CX10 transforms industrial signals into actionable insights for smarter, faster, and more reliable operations.**
