2010-founded IoT remote monitoring solutions and wireless sensors provider, Monnit launches new ALTA Wireless IoT Gateway that showcases a cellular and Ethernet platform to keep ALTA Wireless Sensor networks in various environments and remote locations running strong on the Internet.
The new cellular engine features 4G Long-Term Evolution (LTE) Category M1 (CAT-M1) and NarrowBand-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) 2 (NB2). Its RJ-45 Ethernet jack allows local device configuration and diagnostics and supports connectivity backup. The ALTA IoT Gateway is a dual-connectivity device as a cellular gateway with Ethernet failover or an Ethernet gateway with cellular failover.
The ALTA IoT Gateway easily connects to iMonnit cloud software, where you can set up and manage ALTA Sensors on a mobile device or PC. It protects, aggregates, and communicates sensor data so you can log data and monitor critical conditions 24/7.
“IoT data is one of the most valuable assets,” said Monnit Founder and CEO Brad Walters. “Our new ALTA IoT Gateway ensures it’s safe and available when you need it. The ALTA IoT Gateway’s reliable versatility is its most impressive feature, keeping IoT networks connected seamlessly everywhere from remote areas to main facilities.”
Long-Range Radio Transmission Among the ALTA IoT Gateway’s Feature Highlights
In addition to its wireless 4G LTE CAT-M1/NB2 cellular engine, the ALTA IoT Gateway delivers long-range radio frequency transmission with interference immunity for up to one mile (line-of-sight) and 1,200+ feet through 12+ walls (non-line-of-sight). The ALTA IoT Gateway also provides up to 60 hours of battery backup, and GPS data is available for an additional fee.
