Monnit 4G Ethernet Gateway
The Monnit ALTA® IoT Gateway uses 4G LTE CAT-M1/NB2 cellular technology to control ALTA® Wireless Sensor settings without additional IT infrastructure. All you need is a power source and the iMonnit cloud platform to monitor your environment and equipment using Monnit's industry-leading wireless devices. The ALTA IoT Gateway communicates with ALTA Sensors and iMonnit to deliver data and send alerts about various machine, equipment, or area conditions.
The IoT Gateway is available in two versions: Commercial and Industrial. The IoT Gateway and iMonnit work together to connect and configure ALTA Sensors over the Internet and make their data accessible virtually anytime, anywhere. The IoT Gateway provides the crucial link that connects ALTA Sensors to iMonnit using 4G LTE CAT-M1/NB2 (4G Long-Term Evolution Category M1/NarrowBand-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) 2) cellular technology. The gateway is equipped with a 60-hour backup battery and will continue to communicate with iMonnit via cellular transmission in the event of a power outage.
Additionally, the IoT Gateway comes with an RJ-45 Ethernet jack (commercial version only) for local device configuration. However, it's ideal for applications without a wired Internet connection or where infrastructure is dedicated to other resources.
The IoT Gateway includes a GNSS location chipset supporting GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, and QZSS satellites. With the proper gateway subscription enabled, gateway location data can be collected, viewed, and distributed to additional software via an application programming interface (API). Location data functionality is only available when the cellular technologies are enabled.
