Notice of EOL of ICP boards and sales restrictions:

2026-09-01 - Protogate's ICP board has now reached the end of its production life, and as of 01 September, 2026 we will be restricting the sale of new ICP boards, in order to preserve our remaining stock of boards for maintenance of existing users.

Details:
Protogate can no longer acquire all the parts needed to build new ICP boards. We have a good supply of ICP boards in stock, but want to dedicate most of those boards to support our existing customers with maintenance contracts. As a result, from now on we will be restricting our sales of new ICP boards and Freeways. We will, however, honor all unexpired quotes we have issued.

If you currently have a maintenance contract with us, be assured that we can continue to maintain your Protogate hardware; we are restricting sales of ICP boards to ensure that we can continue to support existing customers such as you.
By our estimates, we have sufficient ICP boards in stock to support all our existing ICP board maintenance customers for the next 10+ years.

If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at sales@protogate.com, or call us at (U.S.): (858) 451-0865


Protogate designs, builds, markets, and supports WAN data communications equipment and software. Our products are used worldwide to provide access to WAN data on IP networks.

Our product line is designed to satisfy any serial-line WAN protocol data requirement:
  • If you need data transferred between a standard WAN protocol and an IP network, you can use our stand-alone Freeway data communications server and one of our off-the-shelf software Protocols.
  • For more direct control of the WAN protocol, you can write a program on your own computer to control the Freeway and its ICP boards and protocols.
  • If you must connect to a one-of-a-kind protocol, you can either have us create the protocol image for you or you can use our Protocol Software Toolkit to develop it yourself.
  • You can sign up for one of our maintenance and support contracts.
    ( And we provide support and repair services for Simpact, Inc. products such as the ICP1622 board, as well as our own ).
