❌ Without a Datacake Gateway:
Everything is manual and time-consuming. You buy a LoRaWAN Gateway and need to configure it. It may not have cellular connectivity and must be connected to the Internet via Ethernet or WiFi. Next, you need a LoRaWAN network server like TTN or Loriot. You have to configure this server, register and connect your Gateway to it, and create applications on it for your devices. But you still cannot see any measurement data. Now you have to connect the LoRaWAN network server to an IoT platform. Until you can start using LoRaWAN, it will take a few hours. And that again and again.
✅ With Datacake Gateway:
You don't have to worry about anything. The gateway comes with cellular and SIM card, so it runs out of the box. It is directly connected to a LoRaWAN network server and corresponding applications and dashboards for many LoRa devices are immediately available. From Sensor to IoT dashboard on web or app takes only a few minutes.
Ready in 10 Minutes
Setting up the Datacake LoRaWAN Gateway really is that simple. It just requires three easy steps.
Place Gateway and Switch Power On
Simply Place the Datacake LoRaWAN Gateway and power it up using the power supply. Thanks to cellular LTE connection the Gateway will connect to the Internet and cloud without an Internet connection required.
Register Sensors on Datacake Cloud
On the Datacake platform, you can register your LoRaWAN Devices by entering DevEUI, AppKey. Thanks to integrated LoRaWAN Network Server no additional configuration is required.
See Live Values on Dashboard and Smartphone
Datacake features Templates for common LoRaWAN Devices. If you register a device using such a template a Dashboard will be created and you see live data from your devices within seconds on both Web- and Smartphone-Application.
Works with so many products.
Datacake features Ready-to-Use Templates for LoRaWAN Products and Sensors. See here for a List of Devices that are having a Template.
It makes life easier for developers.
The Datacake IoT platform significantly simplifies the development process for LoRaWAN products.
Does not require an Internet connection
Once the gateway is powered, it automatically connects to the Internet and the Datacake platform using on-board LTE modem and SIM-Card.
The Versions
The individual versions do not differ in functionality, but all of them come with a prepaid package for the Datacake platform. This saves compared to the single device pricing and does not require any further monthly payments for the first year.
FAQ
Do I need to set up a LoRaWAN Network Server?
No. That's one of the benefits that you get from using the Datacake LoRaWAN Gateway. Additional, external LoRaWAN Network Servers are not required in order to have the Gateway running. We also take care of the LNS we use in the Background so that you always can rely on the Gateway to be fully functional.
Can I use the Gateway with third-party LoRaWAN Servers like TTN, Loriot?
No. As the Gateway comes with it's own cloud-based LNS you cannot connect third-party LNS like TTN or Loriot. However. If you are looking for a way to connect a third-party LNS to Datacake - this is absolutely possible. We offer a native integration for almost all LNS. Read more about this.
I don't need cellular. Can I use WiFi or Ethernet instead?
Yes. There is the option to use an ethernet port on the Gateway as an alternative to cellular.
I already have a LoRaWAN Gateway!
Perfect. The Datacake Platform can be used with any LoRaWAN Gateway. There is no need of using the Datacake LoRaWAN Gateway then. See here for more details on this.
Not sure how the Gateway will help you?
No worries. We are happy to show you how the Datacake LoRaWAN Gateway can help you get started with LoRaWAN in a Live-Demo where we will also be able to answer all your questions.
