LoRaWAN
A breakthrough in connectivity
LoRaWAN is a Low Power, Wide Area (LPWA) networking protocol designed specifically for ‘things’, meaning you can monitor, sense, track and control your environment from a distance. Being a long-range network, it provides coverage across large geographic areas, making it easier to connect remote or hard-to-reach places. This can be particularly beneficial for IoT applications in cities and for utilities.
Its open standard technology makes it easy to use devices from different manufacturers on the same network, providing you with increased flexibility and choice in what you use.
Built for growth, it allows for thousands of devices to connect from a single gateway, making it possible to scale fast - enabling your organisation to expand when needed.
Security is achieved through end-to-end encryption for application payloads that are exchanged between the end-devices and the application servers.
Scalable
Open standard gives you access to a huge ecosystem of low-cost sensors making it possible to scale at pace.
Reach and range
With the ability to reach underground, get through hard surfaces and connect over long distances.
Low power use
Long battery life with low maintenance needs means sensors can stay in the field longer. Plus, they can be updated over the air.
Resilient and robust
Secure and reliable with the ability to operate in (industrial) noisy environments.
LoRaWAN is in use globally and delivers efficiency, cost savings and sustainability benefits (ref: LoRaWAN Alliance).
- 170+ countries that have deployed LoRaWAN networks
- 80% of population coverage in 15 of the Top 30 GDP countries
- 181 public LoRaWAN network operators
- 300M+ deployed devices
