Gigabox Lion

The Connectivity Solution for Complex Tasks

The GIGABOX Lion from the GIGABOX family is the central hub between multiple in-vehicle bus systems and mobile devices. Thanks to its wide range of interfaces, the GIGABOX Lion enables even more complex networking for demanding tasks.

Your Versatile Development Platform

As a development platform, the GIGABOX Lion can be used in a variety of ways. Together with the control unit, we provide comprehensive base software with a user-friendly interface for applications. With the included development environment, you can implement the desired functionality yourself using a simple scripting language. We can also provide this service upon request.

Modular Design

The GIGABOX Lion consists of a base module that offers various switches and communication interfaces. Thanks to its modular design, the GIGABOX Lion can be easily expanded to meet specific customer needs—for example, with Bluetooth SMART (BLE).
