Introducing the New Datacake Gateway: The Wireless IoT Hub for Fast, effortless LoRaWAN Deployments

Setting up a LoRaWAN gateway shouldn’t feel like configuring a space shuttle. And yet, for many businesses, launching an IoT project still involves juggling hardware, network servers, SIM cards, cables, and hours of configuration.

We thought it was time for something better.

Introducing the Datacake Wireless IoT Hub—a plug-and-play LoRaWAN gateway with built-in cellular connectivity and full integration with the Datacake IoT platform.

No configuration. No stress. No waiting.

Just power it up, and you’re live.

At Datacake, we’ve spent years helping customers deploy IoT solutions faster, smarter, and more affordably. But one challenge kept popping up:

“I love the platform, but setting up my gateway took forever.”

We knew the ideal solution wasn’t just another gateway. It was a gateway that comes with everything you need built in—network server, SIM card, and platform access.

So that’s what we made.

Unlike most LoRaWAN gateways that require IT know-how, complex networking, or additional cloud services, the Datacake Wireless IoT Hub is designed to eliminate setup friction and get you up and running in minutes.

Here’s what sets it apart:

1. Plug & Play — Pre-configured and ready to use out of the box
2. Built-in Cellular Connectivity — No WiFi or Ethernet needed
3. 50 Free Device Licenses — Full access to all platform features, including 7-day data retention
4. Native Integration with the Datacake LoRaWAN Network Server (LNS) — No extra configuration or third-party accounts
5. Works with 300+ Supported LoRaWAN Devices and Templates — Get instant dashboards with zero coding
6. Optional Data Forwarding — Send data to external systems via Webhooks, MQTT, or HTTP
7. Optimized for Fast Deployments — Ideal for pilots, demos, real-world use cases, and scaling up

Everything is built to save time and reduce complexity, so you can focus on deploying sensors and collecting valuable insights from day one.

Use Cases

The Wireless IoT Hub is ideal for a wide range of industries and applications:

1. Smart Buildings — Environmental and occupancy monitoring
2. Smart Farming — Soil moisture, irrigation control, and climate tracking
3. Smart Cities — Air quality, traffic, and noise monitoring
4. Cold Chain Monitoring — Temperature-sensitive logistics and alerts
5. Industrial Monitoring — Machine data, predictive maintenance, and energy use

On average, users of the Datacake Wireless IoT Hub save up to 4 hours during setup compared to third-party gateways.

That’s not just saved time—it’s time you can spend on the things that matter:

1. Testing sensors
2. Visualizing data
3. Making better decisions

Whether you’re monitoring a freezer, a farm, or a factory, the faster you go live, the faster you see value.

IoT shouldn’t be intimidating. With the Datacake Wireless IoT Hub, we’re making sure it’s not.

So if you’ve been thinking about launching a monitoring project, whether it’s your first or your fiftieth—this is your moment.

No setup. No configuration. No friction. Just plug in, and start seeing your world in data.
