LoRaWAN Gateway: Backbone of Smart Cities and Large IoT

Mahan Electronic Team·5 min read

Connecting thousands of sensors across a city or factory needs a long-range, scalable backbone. That is exactly the role of a LoRaWAN gateway.

Large IoT projects — smart metering, environmental monitoring or precision agriculture — must collect data from thousands of sensors. Connecting each one over cellular is neither economical nor stable. A LoRaWAN gateway solves this: one device can receive data from thousands of sensors within a several-kilometer radius and forward it to the internet/cloud. The Mahan Electronic gateway, with 8 simultaneous channels, up to 20 km range, Ethernet and 4G LTE backhaul and an IP66 rating for outdoor installation, is the backbone of a stable IoT network. If you are designing a large project, our experts can help you choose the right architecture.
