The KONA Micro IoT Gateway is designed for enterprise and lightweight industrial applications that require “Always On” connectivity. Configured with an internal 3G/4G modem and a built-in battery backup, the KONA Micro IoT gateway continues to operate and transmits sensor data to the network even when the main site has lost power. Simple to configure and cost effective, it is an ideal hub for deployment of enterprise-level applications in areas where LoRaWAN® coverage is not yet readily available or for private networks where the operator requires unfettered access to the gateways regardless of their deployment location.
TECHNICAL AND FUNCTIONAL SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS
How do I update the software (BSP) on my gateway?
The software on your gateway can be easily updated using the Operations, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) features of the Kona Network Server or OAM Server.
Can I use my own sensors with this Gateway?
Absolutely, there are thousands of instances where our customers use their own end devices and just connect them to KONA Gateways, leading to complete control and customization of your LoRaWAN solution
What Cellular networks can I use for backhaul with TEKTELIC Gateways?
All of our gateways use either common Sierra Wireless Modem, Quectel modem, which are compatible with the majority of global cellular networks
Why is there a battery?
Because the KONA Micro has a built-in 4–6-hour battery backup, the KONA Micro IoT gateway continues to operate and transmits sensor data to the network even when the main site has lost power, to ensure time sensitive, continuous data can be maintained, which is a requirement for some Use Cases such as cold chain monitoring and security.
