Wirnet iFemtoCell LoRaWAN Gateway

The Wirnet iFemtoCell and the Wirnet iFemtoCell-evolution compose Kerlink’s LoRaWAN indoor gateway range

Based on the same Hardware and Software, they only differ by the type of backhaul connection they propose.

The Wirnet iFemtoCell and Wirnet iFemtoCell-evolution range is the ideal LoRaWAN indoor gateway range to support your smart building, smart city or any smart project that requires dedicated deep indoor coverage and/or network densification, providing both unique superior coverage and operational excellence.

This LoRaWAN gateway offers high performance in demanding environments (basement, underground, parking, elevators shafts…) to connect energy meters, parking sensors or equipment actuators.

The Wirnet iFemtoCell range is powerful and robust

These IoT LoRaWAN gateways leverage the successful LoRa RF technical design and the common software of Wirnet i-Series gateways.

In addition, they embed built-in high rejection filters and secured Software architecture to be reliable gateways in the core of your smart application.

The Wirnet iFemtoCell and iFemtoCell-evolution are easy to manage

The Wirnet iFemtoCell and iFemtoCell-evolution are easy to configure, and come with exclusive features for its remote monitoring and management with Kerlink network operations solutions, the Wanesy Management Center.

Thet are also compatible with the Wanesy Small Private Network solution to deploy standalone and self-operating LoRaWAN private network.

They both embed:

  • Ingress protection (IP30)
  • 8ch RX (125 kHz, multi Spreading Factor) + 1ch RX (250KHz or 500kHz, mono Spreading Factor) + 1ch RX (FSK) to get 10ch RX + 1ch TX
  • Built-in high-rejection filters
  • Power supply (230VAC/12VDC) with provided jack connector 2.5mm/5.5mm
  • Highly secured device relying on a hardware secure core (Option)
  • Backhaul connectivity: Ethernet (RJ45)
