LoRa Gateway

LoRa-Gateway for use with VEGA LoRaWAN sensors

Application area

The LoRa-Gateway receives via LoRaWAN the measurement and diagnosis data of appropriately configured VEGA LoRaWAN sensors. The Gateway merges the received data and transmits them via mobile radio to the VEGA Inventory System. The transmission of measured values and messages is carried out via the GSM/GPRS/UMTS/LTE network. The Gateway is available in two versions: - Indoor version for use in offices and living rooms - Outdoor version for use in harsh environments such as workshops and factory halls and for outdoor use

Your benefit

  • No setup required due to preconfigured hardware
  • Quick and easy implementation of the fall back strategy with LoRaWAN, if no mobile phone connection is available
