World’s first converged Industrial IoT hub recognized for innovation
SALT LAKE CITY — TMC, a global, integrated media company helping clients build communities in print, in person and online, in conjunction with its partner Crossfire Media, today announced that FairCom EDGE is one of the winners of the 2021 IoT Product of the Year Award, presented by IoT Evolution World.

FairCom EDGE is an Industrial IoT hub for collecting, transforming, analyzing and forwarding data generated by connected devices – and to ensure ease of use, it’s a true plug-and-play solution with built-in web apps for configuration, management and monitoring. It bridges industry standard protocols with full support for MQTT, OPC UA, Siemens Simatic 7 and ThingWorx AlwaysOn, while at the same time persisting messages to its underlying database for interactive analytics via standard SQL.
In addition, developers can extend FairCom EDGE by taking advantage of its integrated web server and HTTP/REST APIs to build and deploy custom IIoT web applications and real-time dashboards.
“FairCom EDGE is making it easier than ever for organizations to access, share and leverage Industrial IoT data, removing the need for complex integration and administration while at the same time being lightweight and portable enough to run anywhere – on the device, at the edge or in the cloud,” said FairCom Chief Architect Mike Bowers. “We are honored that TMC and Crossfire Media have recognized FairCom EDGE as a leader in IoT innovation.”
The IoT Product of the Year Award honors the best and most innovative products and solutions powering the Internet of Things. Nominated solutions must have been available for deployment within the past 12 months as judged by the editors of IoT Evolution World magazine.
