LoRaWAN Network Server

What is LoRaWAN?

LoRaWAN is a low-power, bidirectional wireless communication technology for transmitting a low volume of data over long distances.

LoRaWAN is one of the de facto standards of the IoT. Leveraging its long range, low power capabilities, and growing ecosystem of sensors and applications, LoRaWAN is the perfect choice for Industry 4.0, Smart City, Building Management, etc. applications.

Using LoRaWAN networks, you can acquire information from any location in your installation without deploying costly infrastructures, either by setting up your own self-managed network or by subscribing to an operator’s network.

Advantages of a LoRaWAN Network

A technology like LoRaWAN allows you to know the status and control the different elements of sensors and control of your installation in a simple and viable way because:

• There can be hundreds of meters or kilometers between the nodes and a Gateway.
• Its low energy consumption allows to extend the life of the batteries for years.
• It is very quick to learn how to use it.
• Security in communications at all levels.
• Interoperable architectures with the control systems already installed.
• Its technological characteristics make it an appropriate technology for all industrial and infrastructure environments.

What Does the Network Server Do in a LoRaWAN Network?

The Network Server is the software that manages and controls the network. In complex networks with multiple gateways, the Network Server is the element that guarantees correct operation and reliable data exchange between sensors, actuators, gateways, and third-party applications.

With ThingPark Enterprise you will obtain a market-leading Network Server for dedicated/private enterprise IoT networks. Easy to deploy and use, already installed in hundreds of facilities around the world.

• Implement your own industrial IoT network.
• Connect multiple data sources and applications.

“Modular, scalable and secure, it can be easily implemented in the cloud (SaaS) or on the client’s premises.”

ThingPark Enterprise allows you to implement your own fully controlled LoRaWAN network to quickly enable all types of applications. All network components are managed from a single, easy-to-use user interface.

• Monitor the network visually to detect faults, interference, or control network load.
• Control and optimize your network by managing the gateways that comprise it.
• Contextualize the information of the nodes and add them dynamically and centrally.
• Interoperate with any other third-party application.

• Gateway Compatibility
  Compatibility with all types of gateways present in the market, including Cisco, Kerlink, Multitech, Browan, Ufispace or Milesight, among others.
• Device Compatibility
  ThingPark Enterprise has complete device profiles that allow managing multi-RF profiles, guarantees compatibility with different classes of LoRaWAN nodes (A, B or C) and allows decoding the application payload for easy integration of third-party applications.
• Modbus Integration

  Integrated interfaces and protocol adaptation services to facilitate integration with Modbus end nodes and applications, allowing a simple upgrade of already implemented solutions.

ThingPark Enterprise offers a simple and efficient node and gateway management experience:
