// What it is
A headless, industrial-grade gateway built for the lab — and for the people who run it.
Gateway 2 is the default choice in the SynConnect line. Industrial-grade ARM compute. Multiple USB ports for instrument connectivity — with corresponding dongles or cables, including point-to-point Ethernet over USB where needed. Standard Synefex security posture: signed firmware, signed connectors, TPM-rooted, no remote access from Synefex.
Lab deployment, not server-room. Synefex products are lab-only equipment — benchtop, in the lab environment where the instruments live.

// When buyers pick Gateway 2
Three typical use cases.
Multi-instrument coverage
A single gateway covers several devices from a central position in the lab. Headless — operators don’t need to interact with the gateway directly.
Robotic / automation systems
Robotic and automation systems that need to communicate with multiple instruments through a single orchestration layer.
Headless lab IT
Lab deployments integrating with existing lab IT infrastructure, where no bench-side display is needed or desired.
