Connecting to 5G NR and LoRa Network with Excellent LoRaWAN Cellular Gateway

PLANET LCG-350W-NR is an Industrial-grade Outdoor 5G NR Cellular LoRaWAN Gateway with reliable connectivity for IoT deployments. It is able to provide ultra-fast broadband access with 5G cellular network.

The LCG-350W-NR offers seamless wireless connectivity through compliance with IEEE 802.11b/g/n standards and is optimized for diverse LoRa applications with support for multiple frequency bands. Thus, the LCG-350W-NR is perfect for diverse regional applications. It provides secure wired network access via a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet interface with PoE+ and built-in electromagnetic isolation protection.

The LCG-350W-NR is built to endure harsh conditions, featuring an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance and operating in a wide temperature range. It includes integrated power protection, an MQTT broker for IoT data communication, strong VPN security, and compatibility with remote management systems. The LCG-350W-NR is the ideal choice for secure, reliable, and flexible networking in any scenario.

 

Ultra-fast 4G/5G Network*

The LCG-350W-NR supports 5G NR DL (downlink) speeds higher than 3.6 Gbps and 4G LTE DL speeds of up to 2 Gbps. Its wide spectrum bandwidth accelerates internet speeds and reduces network latency for premium and time-sensitive connectivity services. It also supports multi-band connectivity including LTE FDD/TDD, WCDMA and GSM for a wide range of applications.

 

*The real 5G NR/4G LTE data rate is dependent on local service provider.

GPS Included

The LCG-350W-NR is equipped with global positioning system feature. It adopts the 5G-NR technology that incorporates multiple global navigation systems (BDS/GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO/QZSS/SBAS). It helps to position location of cellular gateway based on a network of satellites that continuously transmit necessary data. More signals transmitted from more satellites can triangulate its location on the ground, meaning any location can be easily tracked.

LoRaWAN Compatibility 

The LCG-350W-NR is LoRaWAN-compatible, ensuring smooth operation with LoRa sensors. LoRaWAN is a low-power, wide area networking protocol built on top of the LoRa radio modulation technique. LoRaWAN networks and devices such as sensor and gateway allow public or private network to connect multiple applications such as IoT, M2M, smart city, sensor network, and industrial automation applications in the same space.

 

Enhanced IoT Efficiency with LCG-300 Series

The LCG-300 series gateways support the expanding LoRa IoT ecosystem by converting sensor data into easily readable JSON format. This feature allows sensor data to be read without the need for external applications to parse the data, thus significantly simplifying the data integration process and reducing the time required to deploy IoT solutions.

 

Additionally, the built-in MQTT broker in the LCG-300 series facilitates data parsing and collection, enabling users to obtain data quickly and conveniently. This is possible both through the internal MQTT broker and an external MQTT broker. This functionality helps reduce the costs associated with building network servers and minimizes the complexity of the network architecture.

 

 

Ideal High-Availability VPN Security Router Solution for Industrial Environment

The LCG-350W-NR provides complete data security and privacy for accessing and exchanging the most sensitive data, built-in IPSec VPN function with DES/3DES/AES encryption and MD5/SHA-1/SHA-256/SHA-384/SHA-512 authentication, and GRE, SSL, PPTP and L2TP server mechanism. The full VPN capability in the LCG-350W-NR makes the connection more secure, flexible, and capable.

 

Excellent Ability in Threat Defense

The LCG-350W-NR has built-in SPI (stateful packet inspection) firewall and DoS/DDoS attack mitigation functions to provide high efficiency and extensive protection for your network. Thus, virtual server and DMZ functions can let you set up servers in the Intranet and still provide services to the Internet users.

 

Cybersecurity Network Solution to Minimize Security Risks

The cybersecurity feature included to protect the switch management in a mission-critical network virtually needs no effort and cost to install. For efficient management, the LCG-350W-NR is equipped with HTTPS web and SNMP management interfaces. With the built-in web-based management interface, the LCG-350W-NR offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility. The LCG-350W-NR supports SNMP, allowing it to be managed via any management software based on the standard SNMP protocol.

 

Maximizing Work Efficiency with PLANET SD-WAN Gateway

PLANET LCG-350W-NR incorporated in SD-WAN (software-defined wide area network) function can greatly increase WAN optimization for managing multiple WAN. With SD-WAN, users can connect any application across all available network connections at every site. It improves application performance and provides a high-quality user experience for increasing business productivity and reducing IT costs.

Integrated LoRa and 5G NR Cellular Communication Solution

PLANET LCG-350W-NR LoRaWAN Gateway is the solution for AIoT applications, seamlessly integrating LoRa, LoRaWAN, and 5G NR cellular technologies to provide superior performance and connectivity. Supporting both LoRa and LoRaWAN standards, the LCG-350W-NR allows transceivers to work with various LoRaWAN sensor devices such as temperature, humidity, water leak sensors, smoke detectors, and PM2.5 sensors. Additionally, legacy sensors can be connected via LoRa Node controllers, capturing and transmitting critical data over long distances through the LoRa wireless network.

The LCG-350W-NR then transmits the collected data via Ethernet or 5G NR to the Network Server, such as an AIoT device, which manages the network and efficiently distributes the data to the relevant applications. Thanks to the integration of the advanced 5G NR technology, the LCG-350W-NR surpasses the 100-meter limitation of RJ45 cables, enabling data transmission over vast distances without the constraints of wired connections. The LCG-350W-NR also includes advanced networking features such as VPN, Modbus, and comprehensive network management, making it highly versatile across various industries.
