UWPA is an endpoint adapter that provides LoRa® or LoRaWAN® communication to an RS485 Carlo Gavazzi meter.

UWPA is a device to be connected to a Carlo Gavazzi meter via RS485. The resulting system transmits measured data either to standard thirdparty LoRaWAN® systems or to the UWPM concentrator using LoRa® technology

Benefits

• Long range communication. Up to 10 km range in open air, 1 km in typical applications.

• Low operating expenses. Wireless solution (EU 868 MHz ISM band and US 915 MHz ISM band) with no SIM card or annual fees.

• Easy and fast configuration via free software.

• Easy commissioning and diagnostics thanks to the push button for communication test.

• Security. Embedded end-to-end AES128 encryption.

• Reliable communication thanks to high-performance antenna, interferences/obstacles immunity and downlink server acknowledge.

• Compatibility. It permits to interface a Carlo Gavazzi meter and analyser with standard third-party LoRaWAN® networks or with UWP 3.0 platform.

Features

• Gateway from RS485 to LoRa®/LoRaWAN® for Carlo Gavazzi meters (one meter for each UWPA)

• USB port for easy set-up via UCS Software

• Universal power supply

• Configurable LoRaWAN® communication

• OTAA or ABP authentication

• Long communication range (10 km in open air, from 200 m to 3 km in typical applications)

• Communication interval from 5 min to 24 h

• Remote diagnostics via LoRa® RF technology communication

• LED indication of operating status
