Which LoRaWAN Gateway for Which Job?
We spec by the job, not the logo. European-made Kerlink and Adeunis gateways come first; where a lower-cost gateway does the job, we say so.

Where LoRaWAN Gateways Work in Ireland
One gateway, hundreds of battery sensors, readings every few minutes for years.
Starter Kits
Prove It on One Site First
Not sure which setup fits? Start with a kit. Buy the gateway and sensors and the IoT Factory platform is included free for 3 months: full dashboards and alerts, or an API feed into your own system. Lower integration cost, a faster start, and proof on one site before you roll out.
The Gateway Is the Middle of the Stack
Sensors below it, platform above it, antenna and backhaul around it — supplied together and staged in Galway.
Three Ways to Buy
Take the whole system, the hardware only, or just the data.
LoRaWAN Gateway Questions, Answered
What is a LoRaWAN gateway?
A LoRaWAN gateway is the radio base station of a LoRaWAN network. It receives short messages from battery-powered sensors, often several kilometres away, and forwards them over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or 4G to a network server and on to your monitoring platform. One gateway typically covers a building or site and serves hundreds of sensors. TITAN supplies LoRaWAN gateways in Ireland and stages them in Galway.
Do LoRaWAN sensors work without a gateway?
No. LoRaWAN sensors only transmit short radio messages, and a gateway has to receive them and pass them to the internet. The gateway is a one-off purchase that every sensor afterwards reports through, and it goes where power, height and backhaul are best rather than next to the sensors.
Which LoRaWAN gateway do I need?
Start from the job. Indoor coverage in one building suits a Kerlink iZeptoCell or iFemtoCell, the Adeunis IRIS or a Milesight UG65. A site or town needs an outdoor IP67 gateway such as the Kerlink iStation, IRIS or Milesight UG67. Off-grid sites suit the Kerlink iStation M2 with solar. Industrial sites that need a 4G router anyway suit the Robustel range.
What range does a LoRaWAN gateway give in Ireland?
Kerlink quotes up to about 2 km in dense urban areas and up to 15 km in open rural country. Real range depends on gateway height, the antenna, cable loss and what is in the way: hills, buildings and metal all shorten it. Height usually matters more than power, so a gateway on a mast or high roof covers far more. We plan placement per site rather than quote one number.
Should I use an indoor or outdoor LoRaWAN gateway?
If the sensors are in one building, an indoor gateway placed centrally and high usually covers it, including plant rooms and basements. If sensors are spread across a site, farm or town, use an outdoor IP67 gateway on a mast or roof. The Kerlink iStation, Adeunis IRIS and Milesight UG67 are outdoor-rated. Robustel gateways are IP30 and go in an outdoor enclosure.
Can a LoRaWAN gateway run off-grid on solar power?
Yes. The Kerlink iStation M2 draws less than 1.8 W, and Kerlink’s solar kit is designed to keep it running for up to ten days without sun. Kerlink offers a 30 Wp and an 80 Wp kit; the 80 Wp kit is the version rated for Irish latitudes. The M2 and solar kit are new in Kerlink’s range, so ask us about availability before planning a rollout around them.
Do I need a LoRaWAN network server?
Every LoRaWAN network has one, but it can run on the gateway itself. The Adeunis IRIS, Milesight gateways and most Robustel gateways have an embedded network server, and Kerlink’s iStation and iFemtoCell gateways include ChirpStack. For larger or multi-brand networks, the gateway forwards to an external server such as The Things Stack, Actility or Loriot. We set the network server up during staging so sensors arrive already joined.
Should the site be surveyed before the gateway goes up?
Yes: measure first, then mount. A LoRa field tester such as the Adeunis Field Test Device shows real signal at each sensor point, and a cellular survey tool such as the Siretta SNYPER-LTE confirms the 4G backhaul where the gateway will sit. A short check before drilling avoids moving the gateway later. Your installer carries out the work; we supply the tools and the advice.
