NB-IoT & LTE-M
Macro Bluetooth Gateway

The Lansitec Macro Bluetooth Gateway (NB-IoT/LTE-M) gathers data from nearby BLE beacons, sensors, or controllers, then forwards it to a remote server via cellular networks. Equipped with a 38,000mAh (low-discharge) battery, it can operate for five years or more, even in challenging environments. With IP66 protection, an adjustable reporting interval, and broad BLE protocol support (iBeacon, Eddystone, private), this gateway delivers a versatile, long-term solution for various asset tracking and monitoring applications.

NB-IoT/LTE-M Macro Bluetooth Gateway Features

What Makes it Unique

Long-Life Battery A 38,000mAh Li-SoCl2 power source can deliver 5+ years of operation at default settings (5s BLE scanning, 240s cellular reporting).
Wide Cellular Coverage NB-IoT/LTE-M worldwide bands ensure data transmission even in remote or low-signal areas.
Multiple BLE Protocols Works with iBeacon, Eddystone, and proprietary formats for broad sensor compatibility.

Rugged IP66 Enclosure Suitable for outdoor or industrial environments (-45°C to +85°C).
Configurable Data & Interval Users can adjust Bluetooth payload filters and upload frequency to balance power usage and data needs.
FOTA Over Bluetooth Supports firmware upgrades without physical servicing, reducing maintenance overhead.

NB-IoT/LTE-M Macro Bluetooth Gateway Use Cases

What it Could be Used for

Hospital Asset Tracking

Monitor critical medical devices (e.g., infusion pumps, portable X-ray units) and forward real-time usage and location to hospital IT systems. Ultra-long battery life reduces manual checks and maintenance.

Vehicle Tracking

Gather BLE sensor info (fuel, tire pressure, diagnostics) from fleet vehicles. Relay aggregated data to the cloud for route optimization, safety checks, and real-time alerts.

Industrial Inventory

Track and manage large machinery or warehouse pallets over extended periods without frequent battery replacements. Alerts and data trends help minimize downtime and streamline logistics.

Supply Chain Visibility

Deploy the gateway in shipping containers or cargo bays. Prolonged battery life ensures continuous asset visibility during long-haul transportation, improving traceability and reducing loss or damage.

Off-Grid Infrastructure

Ideal for remote facilities (e.g., telecom towers, solar farms) lacking consistent power supply. The durable design and low discharge battery enable automatic sensor readings and status reports even under harsh conditions.
