Planet Industrial 5-poorts Gigabit LoRaWAN Wi-Fi gateway LCG300W EU controller (LCG300WEU)

This industrial-grade gateway integrates a 5-port Gigabit Ethernet switch, a LoRaWAN radio, and a 300 Mbps Wi-Fi access point into a single DIN-rail or wall-mount unit. Engineered for demanding IoT and M2M deployments, the LCG300W EU Controller provides reliable, secure connectivity for smart city, factory automation, and remote monitoring applications.

Advantages

Combining multiple communication technologies in one rugged enclosure reduces hardware costs and simplifies installation. The redundant DC power input ensures continuous operation even if one supply fails, while the wide operating temperature range of -20 to 70°C allows deployment in harsh environments. With support for LoRaWAN 1.0.3 Class A and Class C, the gateway can communicate with a vast ecosystem of sensors and actuators.

Suitable for

• Smart city infrastructure such as street lighting, parking, and waste management
• Industrial automation and process monitoring
• Agricultural and environmental sensing networks
• Remote asset tracking and logistics
