See what the industry is saying

“LoRaWAN plays a key role in the wireless ecosystem, providing a technology purpose-built for long range, low data rate, and low power connectivity. It's important for organizations that are considering using wireless technologies in their operations to evaluate all multi-RAN standards, whether LoRaWAN, 5G, Wi-Fi 6, etc., to address each use case with the right single- or multi-technology solution. Cisco is enabling just that by bringing LoRaWAN capability to its industrial router, enhancing an already flexible, scalable, and secure solution to meet a variety of wireless needs.”

Donna Moore, CEO and chair of LoRa Alliance

“Many industries are now deploying a blanket of unlicensed long-range IoT radio coverage over their buildings, campuses, parking structures, construction sites, etc. The main difficulty is securely integrating this new infrastructure within the existing industrial network. Cisco is solving this problem with the new LoRaWAN module for the the Catalyst IR1100 Rugged Series Routers. Hundreds of thousands of these routers have already been deployed as a key component of industrial networks, and now adding LoRaWAN is a no-hassle “plug-in” option.”
