- Wireless Gateway
Large commercial farms and greenhouse operations increasingly run BACnet-based building management systems (BMS) to control HVAC, CO₂, and climate equipment. This industrial LoRaWAN gateway bridges the gap — connecting Growlink's wireless sensor network directly into your existing BACnet/IP infrastructure as native objects, while simultaneously forwarding the same data to Growlink via MQTT. No proprietary middleware. No rearchitecting your BMS. No rewiring.
How It Works
The two data paths are fully independent. Changes to Growlink's MQTT configuration have zero effect on BACnet behavior. Built-in frame buffering preserves data during any network interruption — no readings are lost.
Available Variants
Without LTE
Connects via Ethernet (WAN) or 2.4 GHz WiFi backhaul. Ideal for facilities with reliable wired or wireless network infrastructure already in place.
With LTE (Cat 4)
Adds cellular LTE Cat 4 backhaul for sites where wired internet is unreliable or unavailable. Region-specific LTE modules available for North America, EMEA, APAC, and more.
Key Features
Native BACnet/IP Objects
Each LoRaWAN sensor is mapped to standard BACnet/IP objects. The BMS discovers and polls them like wired devices — no middleware, no proprietary drivers.
Parallel MQTT to Growlink
The same sensor data flows simultaneously to Growlink via MQTT for platform dashboards, alerts, and Agentic Cultivation automation — independent of BACnet.
Frame Buffering
Built-in local buffering preserves data during network outages and forwards it once connectivity is restored. No gaps in your BMS trends or Growlink history.
Stable Object Mapping
BACnet object IDs remain stable over the sensor lifecycle. Replacing a sensor does not require BMS reconfiguration, logic changes, or dashboard updates.
8-Channel LoRaWAN
SX1303-based concentrator supports 8 simultaneous channels with –139 dBm RX sensitivity. Covers large facilities and multi-building campuses from a single gateway.
Industrial Enclosure
IP30-rated aluminum housing rated –20°C to +55°C. PoE (802.3at) or 9–36 V DC input. DIN rail and wall mount kits included for control room or cabinet installation.
BACnet Access Control
Supports BACnet device whitelisting so only authorized BMS clients can poll sensor data — preventing unauthorized access on shared BACnet networks.
Multiple Backhaul Options
Gigabit Ethernet WAN, 2.4 GHz WiFi (802.11 b/g/n/ac/ax), 1× SFP, and optional LTE Cat 4 cellular — connect from virtually any site infrastructure configuration.
OpenWRT-Based OS
Runs WisGateOS 2 on a dual-core ARM Cortex-A53 @ 1 GHz with 1 GB RAM. Web-based GUI for configuration, monitoring, and long-term management. Supports "dying gasp" event reporting.
