Gateways.

As the name suggests, gateways provide the door for multiple “things” to connect to the internet. At MultiTech, we believe IoT gateways should be smart, rugged and flexible. That's why we developed the Conduit line—the industry’s most configurable, manageable, and scalable gateways for industrial IoT applications.

Network connectivity choices to your preferred data management platform include carrier approved 4G-LTE, 3G and Ethernet. Network engineers can remotely configure and optimise their Conduit performance through DeviceHQ®, the world’s first IoT Application Store and Device Management platform. Conduit features Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/Bluetooth Low Energy (BT/BLE), GNSS and two accessory card slots that enable users to plug in MultiTech mCard™ accessory cards supporting their preferred wired or wireless interface to connect to a wide range of assets locally to the gateway. Available options include a LoRaWAN® mCard capable of supporting thousands of MultiTech mDot™ and xDot® long range RF modules connected to remote sensors or appliances.

Quick-to-deploy and easy to customise and manage, the Conduit communications gateway is the perfect choice for your IoT application.
