LORA® NETWORK SERVER
LNS-2
The LNS-2 is a LoRaWAN®-compatible Network Server, which via a software suite and high-powered computers used as a central repository for data and software ensures interoperability between the gateways and end-nodes of a LoRaWAN®-compatible IoT sensor network. The role of the Network Server (NS) is to provide users with a set of services and access to network resources. These features include:
- Permissioned access and log-ins for network users.
- Centralized location for network resources.
- Shared access to IoT devices on the network.
- Simplified configuration, management, encryption, storage and export of data to customer applications.
- Maintenance functions such as multi-level logging, configuration and remote gateway diagnostics.
- Map-based representation of network elements, including mobile nodes.
› Solution based on LoRaWAN®-compatible protocols. Interoperable with own gateways and LoRaWAN® compatible end-nodes.
› Its modular design enables scalable and portable embedded architectures to nationwide redundant servers capable of handling thousands of gateways and IoT LoRaWAN® compatible end-nodes.
› Simplified user interface enabling easy web configuration and network management.
› Map-based representation of information, including fixed and mobile IoT end-nodes and supplementary network elements.
› Basic and advanced maintenance functions. Multi-level logging, configuration and remote gateway diagnostics.
› Integration with other applications via REST APIs.
NETWORK MANAGEMENT TOOLS
› Real-time network monitoring.
› Base Station and gateway management.
› Device handling (configuration, timeouts and alerts).
› Security and reliability (user identification, message encryption).
FLEXIBILITY OF THE SOLUTION
› Integration with other applications via REST APIs.
› Supports various protocols and data formats.
› Real-time management of events, alerts and notifications.
› Integrated or external Join Servers for secure device activation and Key storage & management.
› Sending early warnings over LoRaWAN®-compatible satellite or terrestrial networks for anomalies or exceeding safety thresholds.
› Bi-directional communication to and from multi-band IoT devices. Network server facilitates transmission and reception in both the S-band satellite network and terrestrial in the ISM, EU868, US915, and AU923 bands.
LNS-2 Network Servers are designed for the following applications:
› Critical infrastructure early warning and monitoring.
› Oil, gas, and water metallic pipelines.
› Energy, Telecommunications and Broadcast towers and pylons.
› Smart city and smart agriculture IoT monitoring networks.
› Transportation management and smart road safety monitoring.
