New LoRaWAN industrial sensing and I/O solutions from Advantech
22 August 2022
Advantech has introduced two new LoRaWAN industrial sensing and I/O solutions, further increasing its LoRaWAN capabilities. Advantech LoRaWAN products provide a device-to-cloud solution by simply sending collected data through the LoRa gateway to the cloud.
LoRaWAN offers industrial users low-cost, long-distance, low-power, high-security connectivity. With Advantech Edgelink IoT gateway software, 200+ edge devices may be connected via the southbound interface to different platforms via the northbound interface inside the gateway. This allows users simply to plug and play without worrying about data parsing processes.
The WISE-2200-M is a LoRaWAN Modbus read/write communication device. WISE-2200-M supports a maximum of 128 address and 30 rule settings and can connect to Modbus sensors and meters for many different applications. WISE-2200-M LoRaWAN provides a better connection compared with traditional wireless technology.
Features include: wide coverage wireless technology; unique LoRa modulation tech powered by Semtech (communication continues when RSSI is -130dbm); range can be up to 15km in line-of-site installation; support for bi-directional communication and multicast function; support of standard protocols; support of Modbus/RTU protocol with max. 128 address and 30 rules setting; support of LoRaWAN wireless communication protocol; plug and play (with QR-Code, device serial number and EUI address, device information can be pre-configured directly on a network server; high security support for both public and private network infrastructure; AES 128 encryption between end-device and network server; compact size with a simple installation process.
The WISE-4610 Advanced Industrial LoRa/LoRaWAN Wireless I/O Module features selectable private LoRa and LoRaWAN options. It provides a longer communication range and better penetration through concrete and steel, and creates less interference than the 2.4GHz spectrum. The application-ready I/O module can be fitted with an IP65 enclosure and powered by a solar rechargeable battery or 10~50VDC input. It also supports GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, GLONASS systems.
Features include: flexible modular I/O design, compliant with various kinds of I/O and sensor solutions; supports for Modbus/RTU protocol; Real Time Action supports digital output channel for remote power or switch on/off function; three power supply options (DC line power, battery power (optional), and solar power (optional); supports for GNSS Positioning (optional); IP65 Rating (optional).
Low interference with high penetration rate LoRaWAN, created for machine-to-machine (M2M) and Internet of things (IoT) networks, is not a single technology, but a variety of low-power, wide-area network technologies. Compared with traditional mobile networks, LoRaWAN is accepted as having lower cost with higher power efficiency.
