Our LoRaWAN-based solutions facilitate efficient, low-power communication between meters, sensors and gateways, making them ideal for smart metering, environmental monitoring and large-scale energy management across your building portfolio.
As buildings, cities and utilities become increasingly interconnected, the demand for low-power, long-range communication is growing rapidly.
LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) is designed to meet this demand, enabling ista devices to efficiently and securely collect and transmit critical data, even across complex or expansive infrastructures. Whether the focus is on monitoring water usage, air quality, or electricity consumption, LoRaWAN forms the backbone of scalable, future-ready IoT networks.
LoRaWAN is a wireless communication protocol which connects low-power or battery-powered devices, such as sensors, meters and transmitters, to gateways via long-range radio signals. These gateways then forward the data to a central server or building management system. Thanks to its low bandwidth and chirp spread spectrum modulation, LoRaWAN is highly efficient at transmitting small amounts of data over long distances while using minimal energy. Each device only sends data when needed, using adaptive data rates to optimise battery life and network performance.
Discover how our Retrofit Services can modernize your infrastructure, improving energy efficiency and performance without the need for full system replacements.
ista’s LoRaWAN-powered solutions are engineered to stay reliable where other networks fall short. Whether in high-rise buildings, underground utility rooms, or dense urban areas, the adaptive protocol adjusts data rates and transmission intervals in real time — minimizing collisions, reducing network congestion, and ensuring stable connectivity across all your metering and monitoring points. Ideal for smart metering, submetering, and environmental monitoring, LoRaWAN makes it easy to scale across your entire property portfolio — with confidence in every connection.
From large indoor spaces to expansive campuses, LoRaWAN ensures your data is transmitted securely and efficiently.
Our LoRaWAN-enabled portfolio includes our SmartValves, smart BTU, water, and electricity meters, as well as environmental sensors for temperature and air quality.
Yes, LoRaWAN’s strong signal penetration makes it ideal for multi-floor buildings, basements, and utility rooms where traditional signals may struggle.
Very secure. All data is encrypted end-to-end using AES-128 at both the network and application level, protecting it from unauthorized access.
No. LoRaWAN operates on unlicensed ISM bands, making it a cost-effective choice for large-scale deployments.
Absolutely. LoRaWAN is inherently scalable — you can add more devices, gateways, and buildings to the network without major infrastructure changes.
