Description
Description
The Dragino LPS8v2 is a high-performance, open-source indoor LoRaWAN® gateway that bridges your LoRa wireless network to the internet over Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or an optional 4G module. It reaches extremely long range at low data rates, making it a flexible, affordable foundation for private indoor LoRaWAN networks.
Running an open-source Debian system on a quad-core processor, the LPS8v2 is fully LoRaWAN-compatible and supports multiple connection modes — Semtech UDP Packet Forwarder, LoRaWAN Basics™ Station, and ChirpStack MQTT Bridge. It also includes a built-in ChirpStack LoRaWAN server and a Node-RED application server, so you can run a complete IoT service on the gateway itself, with no cloud or third-party server required.
Core Capabilities
Typical Applications
Choosing Your Variant
| Model | Backhaul | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| LPS8v2-868 (EU868) | Ethernet + Wi-Fi | Indoor sites with reliable wired or Wi-Fi internet. |
| LPS8v2-EC25-868 (EU868) | Ethernet + Wi-Fi + 4G | Sites needing cellular backhaul or failover. |
Both variants are EU868. The 4G model uses a Quectel EC25-E module. Both are USB-C powered (5 V / 2 A).

Frequently Asked Questions
Can it run without a cloud or external server?
Yes. It includes a built-in ChirpStack LoRaWAN server and a Node-RED application server, so you can deploy a complete IoT service directly on the gateway.
How is the LPS8v2 powered?
Via USB Type-C (5 V / 2 A) — a charger is included.
Which LoRaWAN platforms does it support?
Most of them — it offers Semtech UDP Packet Forwarder, LoRaWAN Basics™ Station, and ChirpStack MQTT Bridge connection modes, working with platforms like The Things Stack, ChirpStack, and AWS IoT Core.
What's the difference between the two variants?
Both are EU868. The standard model uses Ethernet and Wi-Fi; the EC25 model adds a 4G cellular module for connectivity where wired internet isn't available.
How does it differ from the original LPS8?
The v2 is more powerful — a quad-core CPU with 512 MB RAM running Debian — and adds a built-in ChirpStack server, Node-RED, and more LoRaWAN connection modes.
