The Kvaser Edge WL420S (EAN 73-30130-01758-0) is a rugged, IP67-rated Linux edge computer for telematics, data logging and control in vehicles and machines across automotive, off-highway, rail, marine and industrial applications. An i.MX8 multicore processor with an integrated NPU drives four isolated CAN FD channels, two Gigabit Ethernet ports, WiFi 6, GNSS positioning and an onboard IMU. It runs Kvaser Edge OS (KEOS), with support for several Linux distributions and containers for deploying custom applications securely, and suits both development projects and large production rollouts. A splitter cable (01633-0, sold separately) is needed to break out the four channels and power. Pertech is the authorized Kvaser sales representative in Israel.
Edge WL420S highlights
- i.MX8 multicore processor with integrated NPU, running Kvaser Edge OS (KEOS) with container support
- Four time-synchronized, individually isolated CAN FD channels, up to 8 Mbit/s, using Kvaser CAN-IP in an FPGA
- Two Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) ports, WiFi 6 and Bluetooth LE 5.3
- Multi-GNSS (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou) and an inertial measurement unit
- NXP SE051C2 Secure Element to support CRA compliance of target applications
- Isolated GPIO for trigger-based logging
- Isolated power input with ignition wake-up, and a high-capacity battery for safe shutdown
- Remote CanKing through the CK Service; without a running container it appears as a standard USB interface with CANlib support
Where the Edge WL420S fits
- Fleet telematics and connected vehicle data collection
- CAN data logging with local processing and remote data transfer
- Control applications on off-highway, rail, marine and industrial machines
- Custom edge applications deployed in containers, from prototype to production
