SE50
Smart, automated Internet of Things (IoT) applications
streamline your industrial operations. They speed up
production and help you trim costs.

Rapidly roll out your own smart IoT applications with

Lenovo’s ThinkEdge SE50 edge computing infrastructure
powered by Intel® technology and built for the data needs
of tomorrow.

MORE POWER, MORE VERSATILITY

The SE50 has the power to handle all your real-time data
aggregation and processing with higher performance
options for superior computational capabilities at the
edge — so you can confidently scale your IoT environment
as your business grows. The SE50 even doubles as an IoT
gateway, with diverse wired and wireless connections built
right in.

BANDWIDTH AND STORAGE SAVINGS

End users can deploy the ThinkEdge SE50 to aggregate
and analyze real-time data from distributed IoT devices.
This smart edge device can filter and forward IoT data
across the WAN to the cloud or data center. Customers
have the option to enhance their edge AI strategy with
cutting-edge silicon and optimized software leveraging
the OpenVINO™ toolkit.

BUILT-IN RELIABILITY AND CONNECTIVITY

True to the Lenovo brand, the fanless SE50 is rugged,
built to withstand industrial environments from 0° to
50°C, and comes with an IP50 rating. Available CAN
bus and expandable NICs enable rapid communication
between devices at the edge of your business.
