Is LPWAN the right family?

Choose LPWAN when

  • Hundreds or thousands of battery sensors across one site, campus or city
  • Devices must run 5–10 years on a battery, sending small readings
  • You want the option to own the network (LoRaWAN) with no per-device SIM fees
  • Sensors sit deep indoors or underground where penetration beats bandwidth

Frequently asked questions

What is LPWAN IoT?

LPWAN IoT sends small messages over kilometres on multi-year batteries, over networks you can own (LoRaWAN) or subscribe to. This hub tracks 608 solutions from 175 vendors.

Which LPWAN technology should I choose?

LoRaWAN is the largest in the catalog (608 solutions); the picker above compares all 5 on range, battery, data rate and mobility.

Which industries use LPWAN most?

Buildings & Facilities leads (37%), followed by Energy & Utilities (28%) and Industrial & Manufacturing (27%).

When is LPWAN the wrong choice?

Video, images or continuous high-rate data → Cellular; assets roam across regions and borders → Cellular; everything is in one building on existing IT → Short-Range Wireless: see the fit panel above.
