Low network Total Cost of Ownership : LoRaWAN™ has the lowest cost for network infrastructure deployment and maintenance.

Advanced Technical Attributes :  Very low-power bi-directional communications, deep indoor penetration and can work in a remote, harsh environment, high reliability of the network infrastructure and the sensors.

Battery Life Optimization : LoRaWAN water and gas meters are optimized for a battery life of up to 15 years when communicating once per day, and for transmission frequency, LoRaWAN offers one of the best options for mitigating battery life issues through network densification.

High Security : Electricity, gas, and water distribution networks require the highest level of security. The LoRaWAN specification uses 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithms to provide end-to-end encryption using two keys: one for the utilities, for protection of payload content; another for operators, for network authentication security.

Fast-Growing Open Ecosystem of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) : Utilities have the flexibility to integrate devices from multiple vendors and benefit from interoperability at the network level.

Flexibility in Network Deployment Models : Utilities have the choice to either use their own private LoRaWAN networks or leverage existing public ones.
