KERLINK developed a new “SPN” version for Wirnet™ iFemtoCell: the 2.0.
Disclaimer: This version does not replace the 1.1. This is not the “end of life “of SPN 1.1, which can still be ordered.
The 2.0 brings additional features, such as the “Multi-gateway LoRa© Management”.
Its functional perimeter being different from the 1.1, the 2.0 version requires another commercial license.
So:
- if you have SPN 1.1 and you want to keep SPN 1.1: No change required, please, do not upgrade to the 2.0 firmware. The 1.1 license is not compatible with the 2.0 firmware.
- if you have SPN 1.1 and you want to use SPN 2.0: you have to order a specific license (paying) before using the 2.0 firmware.
If you wish more information about the Wanesy™ SPN 2.0, please contact the sales: salesteam-ww@kerlink.com
When SPN (Small Private Network) firmware is installed on an iFemtoCell, it forms a data collector over a LoRa network.
The classical communication case is that LoRa end-devices (also called motes or end-point devices) emit frames and open short reception windows after the emission.
- The gateway listens to the emitted frames and records those coming from authenticated end-devices.
- The gateway may acknowledge or send a frame carrying a payload during one of the end-device's reception windows.
- The gateway records information associated with frame reception: timestamp, radiofrequency data (band frequency, SNR, etc…).
The SPN iFemtoCell can be connected to an IP network over:
- Ethernet.
- Wi-Fi.
- GSM.
The connection to the IP network is used to:
- Get received data.
- Push data to be transmitted.
- Manage the fleet.
- Configure the gateway.
- Update the gateway.
- Get the logs.
These features are accessible through the following services:
- Web interface (HTTPS).
- Local FTP server.
- Remote SFTP access.
- HTTPS REST API.
- SMS.
- USB flash drive.
Detailed instructions about SPN iFemtoCell web interface are available on the resources page.
More information about the LoRa Alliance and the LoRa protocol can be found on the LoRa-alliance website.
