MILESIGHT - Industrial LoRaWAN POE Gateway

Milesight UG56: POE industrial LoRaWan gateway

UG56 is a robust 8-channel indoor LoRaWAN gateway. Equipped with the SX1302 chip and a high-performance quad-core processor, the UG56 supports the connection of over 2000 nodes.

It offers a line-of-sight range of up to 15 km and can cover around 2 km in urban environments, making it ideal for intelligent buildings, smart industries and many other indoor applications.

The UG56 supports multiple uplink options with Ethernet, Wi-Fi and cellular connections. It also integrates leading network servers (such as The Things Stack, ChirpStack, etc.), as well as an integrated network server and the Milesight development platform for simplified commissioning.

The Gateway Fleet function enables data transmission between remote gateways, facilitating network management.
