MultiTech Conduit® Access Point

Access Point for LoRa® Technology (MTCAP Series)

overview

The Conduit® AP provides deep in-building connectivity and improved performance to network operators and enterprises looking to connect thousands of IoT devices by leveraging the LoRaWAN® protocol. The easy-to-install Conduit AP Access Point extends LoRa® connectivity in commercial buildings such as hotels, convention centers, offices and retail establishments, providing coverage in hard-to-reach areas where cell towers or rooftops cannot reach.

The Conduit AP provides a development environment for software developers and IT professionals alike. mPower™ Edge Intelligence features an easy-to-use graphical user interface and includes an integrated LoRa Network Server and Packet Forwarder to connect locally clustered assets in a private LoRaWAN network directly to IoT data platforms of your choice. The Conduit AP moves complex processing to the edge to reduce upstream communications and operational costs. The Conduit AP provides Ethernet IP backhaul or optional 4G LTE IP backhaul. Commercial buildings and retail facilities present unique installation challenges for installers, particularly with regard to access point location and power availability. The Conduit AP offers models with various power options, including Power over Ethernet, that address these challenges and simplify the installation process.
