MultiTech Conduit® AP harnesses the power of the LoRaWAN® protocol to provide in-building penetration and connectivity to thousands of IoT assets. Easy to deploy, the Conduit AP extends LoRa® connectivity in commercial buildings like hotels, convention centers, offices and retail facilities providing coverage in difficult to reach areas cell tower or rooftop deployments may not penetrate.
The Conduit AP offers a development environment for software developers and IT professionals alike. mPower™ Edge Intelligence features an easy-to-use graphical interface set-up and includes a built-in LoRa Network Server and Packet Forwarder to connect locally clustered assets on a private LoRaWAN network directly to your choice of IoT data platforms. The Conduit AP extends complex processing to the edge to reduce upstream communication and operational costs. The Conduit AP provides Ethernet or optional 4G-LTE IP backhaul.
Programmable embedded software provides enhanced security and enables task execution at the edge for reduced latency and cost optimization.
mPower™ Edge Intelligence is a new embedded software offering, building on its popular application enablement platform, to deliver programmability, network flexibility, enhanced security and manageability for scalable Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solutions.
mPower is the unification and evolution of well-established MultiTech smart router and gateway firmware platforms. In addition to ongoing support of the current feature-sets, gateway customers can enjoy the additional security features currently available on the MultiConnect® rCell 100 Series.
mPower simplifies integration with a variety of popular upstream IoT platforms to streamline edge-to-cloud data management and analytics, while also providing the programmability and processing capability to execute critical tasks at the edge of the network to reduce latency; control network and cloud services costs, and ensure core functionality - even in instances when network connectivity may not be available.
In response to evolving customer security requirements, mPower incorporates a host of new security features including signed firmware validation, enhanced firewall and VPN settings, secure authentication and more.
