Characteristics
• LoRa Gateway has the LoRa receiver / transmitter function and the packet for-
warder, receives / broadcasts LoRa messages and transmits them to the assigned
server.
• LoRa Gateway serves as a transceiver for customers who have their own server
solutions.
• The Gateway (or BTS - Based Transceiver Station) serves as a tool to create your
own LoRa home network for the Internet of Things.
• It collects requests from end devices, and then transfers them to a predetermined
Server.
• The antenna provides radiation in all directions.
• The gateway is also designed for outdoor use.
• For proper Gateway functionality, you need a connected Ethernet cable and a
permanent 48 V DC / POE power supply.
General instrucions
Internet of Things (IoT)
• The IOT wireless communications category describes the Low Power Wide Area
(LPWA). This technology is designed to provide full-range coverage both inside and
outside buildings, energy-saving and low-cost operation of individual devices. Indivi-
dual networks - Sigfox, LoRa, NarrowBand - are available to use this standard.
LoRa network information
• The network is bidirectional and its communication uses free frequency band.
• 865 - 867 MHz India
• 867 - 869 MHz Europe
• 902 - 928 MHz North America, Japan, Korea
• The advantage of this network is the possibility of freely deploying individual stations
in local locations, thus strengthening their signal. It can therefore be used effi ciently in
company premises or, for example, in local parts of cities.
• For more information on this technology, please visit www.lora-alliance.org.
Cautions for proper operation of the device:
• Products are installed according to the wiring diagram given for each product.
• The device must be registered on the server.

LoRa Gateway is attached by brackets to the classic boom or at the top of the mast. The
placement must be such as to have a „free view" in which it does not interfere with other
antennas or metal elements. It is necessary to space apart the diff erent antennas on a
common mast.
Connection
