LPRS (Low Power Radio Solutions), worldwide radio specialists supplying robust wireless solutions where reliability is paramount, has been appointed by Link Labs to sell its market leading LoRa™ range of wireless modules and gateways.
Based outside Washington D.C., U.S.A., Link Labs has developed novel methods for communicating with multiple wireless devices at long range, and with low power consumption using the LoRa™ networking protocolLoRaWAN. This technology offers the ability to connect hundreds or even thousands of sensors and actuators over a wide area to a single gateway, thus providing a complete solution for end users to get their IoT (Internet of Things) products to market quickly.
System builders can simply and quickly bring long-range wireless communications to their own devices and efficiently cover suburbs, cities and geographical regions using a range of base stations and repeater technologies.
