LoRaWAN Gateways — the network behind every LoRa sensor.

Every LoRaWAN sensor needs a gateway to reach the cloud. TITAN supplies three ranges from Ireland — Kerlink, Milesight and Robustel — covering everything from a single plant room to a county-scale network, staged and pre-paired with your sensors in Galway.

The Essentials

What Is a LoRaWAN Gateway?

A LoRaWAN gateway is the bridge between battery-powered LoRa sensors and the internet: it receives radio messages from sensors up to several kilometres away and forwards them — over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or cellular — to a network server and on to your monitoring platform. One gateway serves hundreds of sensors, so the stack is simple: sensors › gateway › network server › dashboard. Sensors don’t work without one — the gateway is the network. TITAN IoT supplies and configures LoRaWAN gateways in Ireland from Kerlink, Milesight and Robustel.

Three Brands, Three Jobs

Kerlink, Milesight or Robustel?

They overlap less than you’d think — each range is built for a different kind of deployment, and we spec by the job, not the logo.

Kerlink — Network-Grade

The carrier-class specialist. Wirnet gateways are built for networks that must not fall over — councils, utilities, campus and city deployments — with Wanesy management for fleet-scale operation and zero-touch provisioning. Choose Kerlink when the network itself is the project.

Milesight — The Easy Ecosystem

Gateway, sensors and cloud from one hand, with an embedded network server — a building or site is live in an afternoon. Indoor (UG65), outdoor (UG67) and solar (SG50) options. Choose Milesight when you want sensors reporting quickly with minimum moving parts.

Robustel — The Industrial Hybrid

LoRaWAN gateway and industrial cellular router in one DIN-rail box, managed through free RCMS — some models run edge applications too. Choose Robustel when the site is industrial and needs cellular backhaul or routing anyway.

Milesight — The Easy Ecosystem

UG65 — Indoor

Semi-industrial indoor gateway with an embedded network server — pair it with the Milesight sensors we stock and a building is reporting the same afternoon. Ethernet, Wi-Fi or cellular backhaul.

UG67 — Outdoor

IP67 outdoor gateway for farms, sites and catchments — cellular or wired backhaul, embedded network server, PoE. The step up when sensors live outside; the solar-powered SG50 variant covers fully off-grid sites — ask us.

EG71 — Building IoT Gateway

The bridge into the BMS — a LoRaWAN gateway with BACnet, Modbus and KNX on board plus real I/O, feeding wireless sensor data straight into Niagara, Siemens, Schneider and other building systems.

Robustel R1520LG industrial LoRaWAN gateway and 4G router Ireland

R1520LG — Universal

The general-purpose industrial choice — runs its own network server or forwards to yours, with Ethernet, Wi-Fi and dual-SIM 4G backhaul, serial ports and free RCMS management. DIN-rail, one box for sensors and site connectivity.

Robustel R1320LGe LoRaWAN packet forwarding gateway with eSIM

R1320LGe — Forwarding

The economical coverage point for multi-site networks — forwards sensor traffic to a central platform over 4G (with eSIM), Ethernet or Wi-Fi. Deploy many, manage centrally through RCMS.

Beyond Standalone

From Sensor Network to Building Management System

Most LoRaWAN deployments run as a standalone sensor network reporting to a dashboard. A building IoT gateway changes that: it bridges the wireless sensors into the systems the building already runs — BACnet, Modbus and KNX — so occupancy, air quality, metering and leak data land inside the BMS alongside HVAC and lighting, not in a separate silo.

TITAN carries two bridge options: the Milesight EG71, shipping now, with BACnet, Modbus, KNX and real I/O in a compact PoE unit — and the Robustel LG5120, the industrial heavyweight adding M-Bus metering, edge computing and Node-RED logic. For large estates standardised on external controllers, the R1520LG forwarding architecture covers that pattern too. Retrofit projects are the sweet spot: wireless sensors reach where cabling can’t, and the bridge makes them native BMS points.

Complete the Network

The Gateway Is the Middle of the Stack

Sensors below it, platform above it — we supply and stage all three layers from Galway, pre-paired so the network is live the day it’s mounted.

LoRaWAN Sensors

Milesight environmental, energy and occupancy sensors, plus Rochester TEK LoRa tank sensors — see the tank level monitoring range.

Network Server & Platform

Embedded on Milesight gateways, Wanesy on Kerlink, or a managed server — feeding the IoT Factory platform, your own system, or an API.

Live Irish Use Cases

Water and environmental schemes run on this exact stack — see river & flood level monitoring for a worked example.

FAQ

LoRaWAN Gateway Questions, Answered

What is a LoRaWAN gateway?

A LoRaWAN gateway receives long-range, low-power radio messages from LoRa sensors — often kilometres away — and forwards them over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or cellular to a network server and monitoring platform. It’s the infrastructure layer of a LoRaWAN network: sensors talk to it, it talks to the internet. One gateway typically covers a whole site or building and serves hundreds of sensors.

Do LoRaWAN sensors work without a gateway?

No — a gateway is essential. LoRa sensors only transmit short radio messages that a gateway must receive and forward to the internet. The good news: it’s a one-off purchase that every sensor afterwards rides on, and positioning is flexible — the gateway goes where power and signal are best, not where the sensors are.

Kerlink, Milesight or Robustel — which do I need?

It depends on the job. Kerlink is carrier-grade infrastructure for networks that must not fall over — councils, utilities, campus and city scale. Milesight is the fastest route from box to dashboard — gateway, sensors and cloud from one ecosystem, ideal for buildings and single sites. Robustel combines a LoRaWAN gateway with an industrial 4G router in one DIN-rail box for industrial sites that need cellular backhaul anyway. We spec per project — and many networks mix them.

What is a LoRaWAN network server — do I need one?

The network server manages the LoRaWAN protocol between sensors and applications — every network has one, but you rarely need to think about it. Milesight gateways embed one on the device; Kerlink offers Wanesy, including a self-contained small-private-network option; and managed servers cover multi-brand networks. TITAN configures the network server as part of staging, so sensors arrive already joined.

Indoor or outdoor gateway?

If the sensors are in one building, an indoor gateway (UG65, iFemtoCell) in a central or high position usually covers it, including basements and risers. If sensors are spread across a site, farm or town, an outdoor unit on a mast or roof (UG67, iStation) gives kilometres of range. No power at all at the best position? A solar gateway with cellular backhaul solves it. Signal surveys are part of how we spec.

Can LoRaWAN sensors connect to a BMS?

Yes — through a building IoT gateway that bridges LoRaWAN into BACnet, Modbus or KNX, wireless sensor readings become standard points inside the building management system, alongside HVAC, lighting and metering. That’s the key to retrofits: sensors go where cabling can’t, and the BMS sees them natively. The Milesight EG71 does this in a compact PoE unit shipping now; the Robustel LG5120 adds M-Bus and edge automation for industrial-grade projects.

What range does LoRaWAN give in Irish conditions?

Typically 2–5 km in towns and 10 km or more in open rural terrain, depending on gateway height and obstructions — hills, dense buildings and metal structures shorten it. Height matters more than power: a gateway on a mast or high roof transforms coverage. We plan placement per site rather than quoting a single number.
