LoRa

Long-range, low-power wireless communication for IoT devices that need kilometer-scale connectivity on battery power.

Overview

LoRa (Long Range) is a spread-spectrum modulation technology enabling wireless communication over distances of 2-15+ kilometers (depending on environment, antenna, and regional regulations) while consuming minimal power. Combined with LoRaWAN network protocols, it provides infrastructure for large-scale IoT deployments without cellular costs.

Why This Technology Matters

LoRa fills the gap between short-range protocols (Bluetooth, WiFi) and expensive cellular networks. It delivers multi-kilometer range on coin-cell batteries lasting years, making it practical to deploy sensors and monitors in locations where wiring or frequent battery changes aren't feasible.

Why You Need It

If your product needs to communicate across buildings, campuses, farms, or cities without cellular subscription costs or frequent recharging, LoRa provides the range and power efficiency required. It's the backbone of smart agriculture, industrial monitoring, and smart city infrastructure.
