1  Introduction 

 

The  L-gateway  is  a  ruggedized  modular  outdoor  gateway  (base  station)  that  enables  versatile 
wireless  connectivity  to  your  Internet  of  Things  (IoT)  applications.  With  the  modular  3  radio 

design,  it  can  quickly  be  adapted  to  a  variety  of  wireless  sensor  technologies  at  regional  RF 

bands. Standard the L-gateway ships with one 868MHz LoRa® radio installed. 
 

LoRa®  RF  technology  has  been  pioneered  by  Semtech  and  is  a  2-way  wireless  solution, 

operating  in  the  license  exempt  ISM  bands,  that  complements  M2M  cellular  infrastructure.  It 

provides  a  low-cost  way  to  connect  battery  operated  and  mobile  devices  to  the  network 
infrastructure. 

 

The  L-gateway  uses  a  web-based  management  system,  but  you  can  also  configure  the  unit 
through the command line interface using SSH.  

 

This document provides information on the following topics:  
 

 

L-gateway hardware identification. 

 

L-gateway hardware installation. 

 

L-gateway logging into the web user interface.
