LoRa is a long range, low power wireless communication technology commonly used in lighting control, asset tracking and building monitoring where extended coverage is required. It operates over sub GHz frequencies, allowing signals to travel further and penetrate buildings more effectively than many traditional short range protocols. This makes it particularly suitable for large sites such as campuses, warehouses and outdoor environments. LoRa devices typically communicate with a central gateway which aggregates data and relays it to a local server or cloud platform for monitoring, control and reporting. Typical applications include remote switching, dimming, environmental sensing and energy usage tracking.
