Reliable Wide-Area LoRaWAN® Connectivity for Harsh Industrial Outdoors: Browan Outdoor Micro Gateway V1
Extend your Industrial IoT network beyond the factory walls with the robust Browan Outdoor Micro Gateway V1 (WAPS-232N). Specifically designed for wide-area applications in challenging outdoor environments, this gateway provides the essential long-range, secure, and reliable LoRaWAN® connectivity needed to monitor assets, optimize logistics, and enhance safety across large manufacturing campuses, yards, and remote sites. Manusphere provides expert integration services to deploy this powerful outdoor gateway within your operational landscape.
Conquer Outdoor IoT Challenges
Deploying IoT sensors and networks outdoors presents unique difficulties. The Browan Outdoor Micro Gateway V1 is built to overcome them:
- Challenge: Ensuring network uptime and device longevity in harsh weather conditions (rain, dust, extreme temperatures).
- Solution: Features a rugged IP67-rated weatherproof and dustproof enclosure, coupled with a wide operating temperature range (-40ºC to 60ºC), guaranteeing reliable performance year-round in demanding outdoor industrial settings.
- Challenge: Connecting numerous sensors spread across vast outdoor areas like storage yards, large campuses, or remote infrastructure.
- Solution: Offers high-capacity LoRaWAN® connectivity with support for up to 16 channels (based on the SX1301 chipset) and excellent receive sensitivity (down to -142 dBm), enabling reliable communication over long distances for a large number of devices.
- Challenge: Installing gateways outdoors where power outlets may be inconvenient or unavailable.
- Solution: Utilizes Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing both power and data connectivity through a single standard Ethernet cable, significantly simplifying installation and reducing wiring costs.
- Challenge: Maintaining reliable data backhaul from potentially remote outdoor locations.
- Solution: Includes standard Ethernet (RJ45) for wired backhaul, with optional 3G/4G cellular connectivity (requires SIM card) providing flexibility for remote deployments or network redundancy.
Key Features & Industrial Benefits
Built for the Elements
The IP67 rating ensures protection against water immersion and dust ingress, while the extended operating temperature range (-40ºC to 60ºC) allows deployment in virtually any outdoor industrial environment, from freezing cold to intense heat, ensuring continuous operation and data flow.
Extensive Coverage & Capacity
Leveraging the powerful SX1301 RF transceiver and supporting up to 16 LoRa channels, this gateway maximizes the number of sensors you can connect across a wide area. Its high sensitivity pulls in signals from distant or hard-to-reach devices, perfect for large sites.
Simplified Outdoor Deployment via PoE
Powering the gateway via the included PoE adapter eliminates the need for separate power cabling, making installation faster, cheaper, and more flexible, especially when mounting on poles or external walls.
Flexible & Resilient Backhaul
Connect reliably to your network via the standard Ethernet port. For locations without wired access or for critical applications requiring backup connectivity, the optional 3G/4G cellular module ensures your valuable sensor data always gets through.
Global Operations & Precise Data
Available in configurations for major global LoRaWAN frequency bands (EU, US, IN, AS, CN, AU), this gateway supports international deployments. An external GPS antenna connector enables accurate network timing or location-based services for asset tracking.
Secure & Cloud-Ready
Industry-standard AES 128 encryption secures your LoRaWAN data transmissions. As an AWS Qualified Device, integration with cloud platforms like AWS IoT is streamlined.
