Connectivity

The right network for every device.

LoRaWAN for sensors that must last years in hard-to-reach places. LTE-⁠M, NB-IoT, 4G and 5G on our IoT SIMs for devices that move or need more data. Planned, installed and monitored by one team.

Where it’s deployed

The network follows the use case.

There is no default. Each device gets the network that suits how it is powered, where it sits and how much it has to say — and most deployments combine both.

Buildings & basements

Buildings & basements

Readings from plant rooms, stairwells and basements.

LoRaWAN gets through concrete and floors, so battery sensors in plant rooms, washrooms and basements report from one indoor gateway — and run for years without a site visit.

How it works

From a sensor in the field to the screen your team uses.

One accountable team for the devices, the network and the software — with every reading delivered to the systems you already run.

  1. Sensors in the field

    01 · Sense

    Sensors in the field

    Sensors on tanks, rivers, buildings, meters and vehicles — chosen for each reading and environment.

  2. LoRaWAN or IoT SIMs

    02 · Connect

    LoRaWAN or IoT SIMs

    LoRaWAN gateways or LTE-M, NB-IoT, 4G and 5G on our IoT SIMs — chosen per device. Most sites use both.

  3. EdgeKinect

    03 · Process

    EdgeKinect

    EdgeKinect Core decodes every reading on the gateway on site; EdgeKinect Vision runs dashboards and alerts in our cloud or on your servers.

  4. Your dashboards & systems

    04 · Act

    Your dashboards & systems

    Live dashboards and alarms for your team, and the same data in SCADA, historians or the cloud.

The challenge

The network is the part that fails quietly.

  1. 01

    Sites without power or cabling

    Tanks, culverts, courts and washrooms where running a cable to every sensor costs more than the sensor.

  2. 02

    Coverage nobody planned

    Gateways placed by guesswork leave dead spots, so readings go missing in exactly the places that matter.

  3. 03

    Batteries that die early

    Chatty radios and a poor signal drain batteries in months instead of years, and every replacement is a site visit.

  4. 04

    Data stuck on the network

    Readings arrive at a network server but never reach the SCADA, monitoring tools or people who need them.

The outcome

A managed network, not a box of gateways.

  1. 01

    Coverage planned before install

    A site survey and coverage plan, with gateway positions agreed with you before anything ships.

  2. 02

    The network chosen per device

    Private LoRaWAN on gateways we supply or you own, LTE-M, NB-IoT, 4G or 5G — picked for each use case, on one platform.

  3. 03

    Hardware from several manufacturers

    Sensors, trackers and gateways chosen for the reading and the environment, not locked to one vendor.

  4. 04

    Network health watched for you

    Gateways and sensors monitored by us, so problems are found before readings stop.

  5. 05

    Readings that reach your systems

    Decoded data in SCADA, IT monitoring and dashboards — not a network server and a CSV export.

Coverage design

Surveyed before a single gateway ships.

Buildings, terrain and basements decide where a signal reaches. We survey the site, model coverage and agree gateway positions and backhaul with you — and put moving devices on IoT SIMs.

FAQ

Connectivity questions, answered.

What buyers ask us most about LoRaWAN, IoT SIMs, coverage and gateways.

It depends on the use case, and most deployments use both. LoRaWAN suits battery sensors that must last years, hard-to-reach spots such as basements, culverts and rural sites, and wide sites covered from a few gateways. LTE-M, NB-IoT, 4G and 5G on our IoT SIMs suit devices that move, send more data or need real-time control, and sites with strong coverage. An IoT specialist recommends the network per device during the site survey.
