We are excited to announce a strategic distribution agreement with Industrial Data Xchange (IDX), a leader in industrial communications based in Johannesburg. This partnership marks a significant milestone as we expand our footprint into South Africa, Botswana, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

A New Frontier for IDX: Open Linux Gateways

While IDX is a powerhouse in factory automation, this collaboration adds a powerful new dimension to their portfolio for Automotive and Industrial Solutions. Our owa units allow IDX to penetrate high-growth sectors including Mining, Construction, Agriculture, and Railways.

These industries require more than just standard networking; they require specialized hardware capable of surviving the world’s toughest conditions.

Engineered for the Edge

Through this partnership, System Integrators and OEMs across the region can now leverage the unique capabilities of Owasys hardware:

• Multiple CAN Bus Interfaces: Essential for deep integration with vehicle ECUs and industrial machinery, enabling advanced telematics and diagnostics.
• Ruggedized for Extremes: Built to handle high vibration, extreme temperatures, and dust—perfect for the Southern African landscape.
• Total Open-Linux Control: Unlike “black box” solutions, our open system gives developers the freedom to build highly customized logic for specialized fleets.
• Developer Support: Instant access to APIs and Microservices via the Owasys Developers Portal.
  
  

By combining IDX’s deep technical expertise in industrial data with our owa platforms, we are opening doors to smarter, safer, and more connected heavy machinery across the continent.

Welcome to the team, IDX! We look forward to driving the future of African industrial IoT together.
