  1. Wireless IoT Hub

Overview

The Datacake Wireless IoT Hub is an easy-to-use LoRaWAN gateway that integrates directly with the Datacake platform.

Last updated 7 hours ago

Was this helpful?

It’s designed to get you up and running with IoT projects in just a few minutes – no setup, no subscriptions, no third-party tools required.

What's Included

  • LoRaWAN Gateway (Datacake Wireless IoT Hub)

  • Power adapter and indoor antenna (type of power adapter is based on IoT Hub version, e.g. EU)

  • Preinstalled SIM card with prepaid data

  • Setup instructions + device license code for 50 devices on the Datacake platform

Key Features

  • Native integration with the Datacake LoRaWAN Network Server (LNS)

  • Cellular connectivity out of the box – no WiFi or Ethernet required

  • Plug & Play: no configuration needed

  • 50 free devices with full access to platform features (7-day data retention)

  • Works with 300+ supported LoRaWAN devices and templates

  • Optional data forwarding via Webhooks, MQTT, or HTTP

  • Ideal for fast deployments, demos, and real-world use cases

Use Cases

The Wireless IoT Hub is ideal for a wide range of applications, including:

  • Smart Building (environmental and occupancy monitoring)

  • Smart Farming (soil moisture, climate, irrigation)

  • Smart City (air quality, traffic, noise)

  • Cold Chain Monitoring (temperature-sensitive logistics)

  • Industrial Monitoring (predictive maintenance, machine data)

How It Works

  1. Order the gateway through your Datacake account

  2. Unbox and power it up – SIM card is active

  4. Go to Gateways in the sidebar, enter the included code

  5. Add your LoRaWAN sensors – dashboards and data appear instantly

Buying the Gateway

The Datacake Wireless IoT Hub is available for purchase directly inside the Datacake platform.

We’ve chosen this method to:

  • Automatically link the gateway to your account

  • Activate your included device licenses right away

  • Provide access to your invoices and order history via the Billing Center

  • Simplify support and onboarding

To buy, simply log in to your Datacake account and navigate to the Gateways section.

SIM Card and Connectivity

Each gateway includes a preinstalled SIM card with prepaid data. This allows the device to connect immediately without local internet access.

  • No WiFi or Ethernet required (though both are supported)

  • Data volume typically lasts several months to a year, depending on use

  • No automatic renewal or hidden charges – you'll be notified when it runs low

  • Top-ups and subscriptions will be offered later, with full transparency

Support

If you have any questions, feel free to:

  • Use the contact form on the platform

  • Reach out via the live chat

  • Or send us an email – we’re happy to help

We’ll also contact you after your purchase with delivery updates and any further instructions.
