What it is

LoRaWAN sensors send small messages over kilometres on very little power, so batteries last years. A gateway on a high point collects them and forwards the data to a network server and application.

Where it fits

  • Farms, estates and campuses
  • Building sensors: temperature, occupancy, leaks
  • Water, soil and environmental monitoring

What to look for

  • Gateway position and antenna height
  • Network server and platform
  • Backhaul: 4G, Ethernet or Wi-Fi

Part of our IoT and M2M hub. You will find the products we sell for this below, along with our explainers. If you are planning more than a handful of sites, talk to us before you buy: getting the router, antenna and SIM right first time saves site visits later.

Talk to an M2M and IoT connectivity specialist. Not sure which technology fits your project? Tell us what you need to connect and where, and our UK team will recommend the router, antenna and SIM, with pre-sales advice, after-sales technical support and a range of configuration options.

Questions

How far does LoRaWAN reach?

Several kilometres in open country with a well-placed gateway, much less in dense buildings.
