Black Box AW3000 (EME800A) Wireless Gateway

Black Box AlertWerks AW3000 (EME800A) Wireless Gateway, 915 MHz

The AlertWerks AW3000 (EME800A) is an all-in-one-box LoRaWAN solution for wireless IoT applications. This is much more than competing gateways that upload data to a cloud service; it is a central unit that gives you full control via a web interface. LoRaWAN works on sub 1GHz frequencies using multiple modern technologies to transmit data wirelessly on a kilometer scale. It offers end-to-end encryption and security, so no one can see your data or steal your sensor.

As an open platform, AW3000 enables you to use any LoRaWAN 1.0.x compatible sensor on the market. AW3000 has a very easy connect/join procedure to get LoRaWAN data from your sensor flowing into the system. Along with virtual sensors, actions, and notifications, you can also set up and use multiple dashboards. LoRaWAN is a low-power wide-area network that is highly desirable for IoT environments. It works on sub-1-GHz frequencies using multiple modern technologies to transmit data wirelessly on a kilometer scale. This technology offers end-to-end encryption and security, assuring data protection.

As a Linux device with an HDMI output and USB ports, the AW3000 can be directly connected to visualize data on the unit. The AW3000 boots into a graphical user interface, so there is no need for command-line editing or Linux knowledge.

AW3000 delivers highly customizable, interactive dashboards with drill-down functionality, world maps and floor plans. All data is stored in an SQL database.

Bundles

While available as a standalone IoT gateway to be implemented in a variety of user-defined environments, the AW3000 is also available in pre-configured bundles with a fixed number of sensors and dashboard designed specifically for the microbrewery, craft distillery, and craft winery environments. The temperature sensors included in the bundles can measure -67 to +257 degrees F (-55 to +125 degrees C). The connection between the metal probe and cable is water-, moisture-, and rust-proof. Designed for long-term use (up to 10 years), the sensor is powered by an 8500-mAh Li-SOC12 battery. The temperature sensors send an alarm to the gateway when the temperature goes out of the desired range. The door sensors included in the bundles detect door open/close status, open duration, and open counts. The sensors send data every two hours as well as for each open/close action. The door sensors send an alarm to the gateway when the door has been open for a preset time. Designed for outdoor use, the sensors have a weatherproof enclosure and an industrial-level battery to work in low to high temperatures.
