Gateway
Receives the sensors' LPWAN signals through material and floor slabs and forwards them to the Intect Cloud.
The gateway is the communication bridge between the sensors in the material and the Intect Cloud. It receives the low-power radio signals through screed, concrete and floor slabs and ensures robust data transfer on site. Current series: proven industrial hardware as an interim solution — Intect's own gateway follows by the end of 2026.
- Receives the sensors' LPWAN (mioty) signals on site — through material and floor slabs
- Reliable uplink from the construction site to the Intect Cloud
- One gateway serves multiple sensors and floors
- Current series: proven industrial hardware; Intect's own gateway follows by the end of 2026
Overview
The gateway aggregates sensor telemetry and forwards it to the Intect Cloud — the basis for timely evaluation and reporting.
Technical data
Based on an industrial gateway platform; see the datasheet for network capabilities, environmental limits and electrical interfaces.
Installation
Choose a position with good sensor coverage and a stable uplink. Placement accounts for building geometry and construction phase.
Connectivity
The gateway links on-site LPWAN sensing to cloud ingestion. Data is available in the app and portal.
How sensors and gateway work together
On site every sensor reports to the same gateway — including those fully embedded in screed or concrete.
- 1 Sensors in the screed — placed during installation, fully embedded, nothing sticking out.
- 2 Sensors in concrete — in the base slab, ceiling or wall, retrofitted if needed.
- 3 The gateway receives the radio signals through material and floor slabs.
- 4 Uplink to the Intect Cloud — analysis and documentation in the app and portal.
Range depends on how deep the sensors sit in the material and on the building's geometry: around 1 km with the antenna in the open, down to a few dozen metres when the sensor is deep inside a component and the signal has to pass through reinforcement and floor slabs. One gateway typically serves several floors and many sensors at once — we plan the coverage per project.
Choosing a gateway
Which gateway fits a project depends on the mounting location and the size of the site.
Indoor
Current series. Mounted inside the building — site office, plant room or stairwell.
Typical use
Building construction, multi-storey, interior fit-out
Enquire
Outdoor
on requestWeatherproof housing for mounting on the shell structure or a site container.
Typical use
Shell structures without enclosed rooms, open floors
EnquireOutdoor Extended Range
on requestFor large sites and several buildings in one location — one gateway instead of many.
Typical use
Site development, infrastructure, industrial construction
