MultiConnect® Conduit IP67 Base Station is a ruggedized IoT
gateway solution, specifically designed for outdoor LoRa® public
or private network deployments. This highly scalable and certified
IP67 solution is capable of resisting the harshest environmental
factors including moisture, dust, wind, rain, snow and extreme heat,
supporting LoRaWAN™ applications in virtually any environment. The
enhanced MultiConnect Conduit IP67 solution can support thousands
of LoRaWAN certified end nodes, including the MultiConnect® mDot™*
and xDot™*. This flexible solution provides durable, low-power, wide
area connectivity in support of M2M and IoT applications for both LoRa
service providers and individual enterprises wanting to expand their
LoRa network coverage.
Designed for easy deployment, the solution includes a MultiConnect
Conduit with a LoRa MultiConnect® mCard™, IP67 enclosure, LoRa
antenna to improve outdoor range and provides a choice of 4G-LTE
or Ethernet backhaul options. It can be deployed as part of an
existing telecommunications tower, individual stand or wall mount.
*Represents ideal network configuration and equipment set up. Results vary depending on payload
amount, transmission frequency, spreading factor used, as well as terrain, RF interference and
obstruction type (e.g., metal, cement, etc.)
IP67 BASE STATION POWERED BY CONDUIT - HIGHLIGHTS
Applications
The MultiConnect Conduit IP67 Base Station is used in a wide variety of applications such
as energy, agriculture and smart cities and supports both public and private LoRa networks.
Because it is certified and carrier approved, customers are able to quickly deploy with LoRa
and cellular connectivity to realize new revenue streams, reduced operational costs
or improved service oering.

and service that includes free on-line technical support, 24 hour website, and FTP support.
MULTICONNECT CONDUIT HIGHLIGHTS
Application Development Tailored to You
The Conduit IP67 Base Station oers two development environments for developers and
users alike. For advanced developers, the mLinux, Yocto Linux BSP integrates directly
to a cloud-based LoRaWAN Network Server, enterprise data center or public operator’s
core network. While the AEP features an easy-to-use graphical interface set-up and
includes a built-in LoRa Network Server to connect locally clustered assets on a private
LoRaWAN network directly to your choice of IoT data platforms. The AEP extends
complex processing to the edge to reduce upstream communication and operational
costs. Either way, the access point provides your choice of 4G-LTE or Ethernet IP backhaul.
For the Advanced Developer –
Open mLinux Development Environment
With a completely open Linux development environment, our mLinux
distribution is based on the Open Embedded/Yocto project; providing
hundreds of open source packages and extensive language support.
This development path is recommended for those wanting to port
existing applications, who have strong language preferences, or
who need complete firmware control.
The mLinux Distribution Includes:
·Operating System: Linux 3.12 Kernel, Yocto 1.6
·Language Support: Java, Ruby, Perl, Python,
C/C++, PHP, C# and JavaScript
·Packages: SQLite (Database), Ligttpd (Web Server),
BusyBox (Core Utilities)
Fast and Intuitive Programming with Node.js
and Node-RED Technologies
Applications can be simply created and deployed by the
click of a button based upon IBM’s Node-RED visual
development tool. Incredibly user-friendly, Node-RED
is an intuitive graphical programming tool ideal for rapid
prototyping, designed for IT professionals to optimize
and scale the edge behavior of their IoT network.
