Key Features Explained

1. LoRaWAN Gateway (8 Channels)

• Supports 8 configurable LoRa channels, enabling simultaneous communication with many LoRa end devices.

• Complies with LoRaWAN 1.0.3 for robust IoT networks and high sensitivity and transmit power.

• Works in EU868 frequency plan (Europe region).

2. Multi'Backhaul Connectivity

The gateway can connect your local LoRaWAN devi wired, stable, and fast.

Wi'Fi 2.4GHz access point or client mode.

LTE cellular (optional) with a nano'SIM slot for deployments where wired or Wi'Fi isn't available. This flexibility ensures uptime and wide deployment options.

3. WisGateOS (Custom OpenWRT)

The gateway runs WisGateOS, an Arduino'branded version of OpenWRT (Linux'based) making it highly customizable and powerful. Built'in capabilities include:

• Network routing & firewall

• Secure remote access (OpenVPN, SSH2)

• MQTT/S bridging for cloud integration

• LoRa data logging and frame filtering

• Time protocol (NTP) support

4. Locallets you store diagnostics, LoRa frames, and logs locally useful when internet backhaul is intermittent.

Helps with backup, troubleshooting, and offline buffering.

5. Power & Installation Ease

• Can use Power over Ethernet (PoE) powerful for installations where running separate power lines is difficult.

• Supports 12V DC input as well.

• Enclosure is designed for good cooling and is mountable on walls or DIN rails in control panels.

Typical Applications

The WisGate Edge Lite2 is widely used for:

Industrial IoT Connectivity connect sensor networks in factories or warehouses. Smart City Deployments city'wide environmental sens long'range sensor networks inside multi'story buildings. Logistics & Asset Tracking gateways for wide area sensor coverage. Private LoRaWAN Networks run your own network servers with MQTT bridging to cloud services.
