Description
The HoneyComm HCBG01 Bluetooth Beacon Wireless Gateway & BLE Reader is an enterprise-grade IoT edge receiver engineered to continuously scan, filter, and ingest radio broadcasts from Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 4.2 / 5.0) beacons, sensor tags, and smart wearables, forwarding real-time telemetry to local servers or cloud dashboards.
Built on an advanced dual-core chipset architecture combining the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52832 2.4GHz Bluetooth SoC and the MediaTek MT7628NN 580MHz MIPS network processing unit, the HCBG01 bridges Bluetooth Low Energy field broadcasts with IP-based enterprise networks. It listens to hundreds of nearby BLE beacons simultaneously, packages RSSI signal strength, MAC addresses, and payload telemetry into structured JSON packets, and publishes them via MQTT, HTTP REST, TCP, or UDP over high-speed RJ45 Ethernet or 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.
1. Dual-Chipset Hardware Architecture
- Bluetooth Subsystem (Nordic nRF52832): High-sensitivity ARM Cortex-M4F processor dedicated exclusively to real-time BLE scanning, packet validation, and RSSI filtering. Integrated Power Amplifier (PA) and Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) deliver extended coverage reaching up to 100+ meters line-of-sight.
- Network & Routing Subsystem (MediaTek MT7628NN): High-performance 580MHz MIPS24KEc processor running embedded Linux network stack. Handles Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n client/AP routing, 10/100M Ethernet switching, TLS/SSL cryptographic encryption, and local buffer management during network dropouts.
- Dual Power Flexibility: Operates via standard IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) over a single Cat5e/Cat6 cable run, or through an external 12V DC / 1A power supply brick.
- Firmware Maintenance & Agility: Supports Over-The-Air (OTA) firmware updates, web-based GUI configuration, and centralized remote fleet management via HTTP/TFTP configuration files.
2. Multi-Protocol Cloud & IoT Integration
- Standard MQTT Broker Streaming: Publishes beacon telemetry directly to public and private MQTT brokers (AWS IoT Core, Microsoft Azure IoT Hub, Mosquitto, EMQX, HiveMQ, and ThingSpeak) using lightweight JSON payloads.
- HTTP / HTTPS Webhook Posting: Pushes real-time HTTP POST requests with customized headers and token-based bearer authentication directly to REST API endpoints.
- Raw TCP / UDP Socket Streaming: Low-latency socket connections for integration with legacy industrial SCADA systems, warehouse management software (WMS), and building automation controllers.
- Hardware Tag Compatibility: Natively parses Apple iBeacon (UUID, Major, Minor, RSSI), Google Eddystone (UID, URL, TLM battery & temperature data), and proprietary sensor beacons—including our matching Small iBeacon Tag BLE 5.0 Beacon (HCBB07C).
3. Key Industrial & Enterprise Applications
- Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) & Asset Tracking: Triangulate high-value medical equipment, calibration tools, forklifts, and warehouse pallets across hospitals, manufacturing plants, and logistics hubs.
- Personnel Mustering & Safety Audits: Monitor employee attendance, hazardous area entry restrictions, and emergency evacuation assembly points using wearable BLE personnel badges.
- Cold Chain & Environmental Telemetry Hub: Automatically collect temperature, humidity, and vibration records from BLE environmental logger beacons inside cold-storage rooms and transit depots without manual scanning.
- Smart Building & Proximity Engagement: Trigger localized promotional content, indoor wayfinding assistance, and automated room occupancy lighting based on customer or badge proximity.
