Description

The Kerlink Wirnet iFemtoCell is a compact, high-performance indoor LoRaWAN® gateway designed for smart buildings, smart cities, and any project that needs dedicated deep-indoor coverage or network densification. It delivers superior coverage in demanding environments — basements, car parks, elevator shafts — to reliably connect energy meters, parking sensors, and equipment actuators.

Built on the proven Wirnet i-Series platform with built-in high-rejection filters and a hardware secure core, it pairs dependable RF performance with operational excellence. Wi-Fi and Ethernet backhaul, simple installation, and remote management through the Kerlink Wanesy™ Management Center make it quick to deploy and easy to operate at scale.

Core Capabilities

Superior LoRa Radio Built on Semtech Reference Design v1.5, with 8-channel RX (125 kHz, multi-SF) plus 250/500 kHz, FSK, and TX channels — 10 RX + 1 TX. Rx sensitivity down to −141 dBm (SF12), Tx 5–27 dBm, with built-in high-rejection filters and LBT.

Wi-Fi + Ethernet Backhaul Backhaul over 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (with an integrated Wi-Fi antenna) or 10/100 Ethernet (RJ45). A WPS push button makes joining a wireless network quick and easy.

Hardware-Grade Security A hardware secure core with SecureStorage via ProvenCore™, OpenVPN/IPsec backhaul protection, optional SecureBoot (signed firmware), and watchdog recovery to a known-good configuration.

Easy to Deploy & Manage Configure and monitor remotely via the Wanesy™ Management Center and Web GUI (SSH access included). Optional Wanesy™ SPN2 embeds a LoRa Network Server on the gateway for standalone private networks.

Typical Applications

Smart Buildings & Facilities: Deep-indoor coverage for basements, car parks, and elevator shafts — connecting meters, sensors, and actuators.

Smart Energy & Metering: Reliably back-haul energy, water, and sub-metering data over Wi-Fi or Ethernet.

Smart Cities & Public Operators: Densify public or private networks indoors where outdoor gateways can't reach.

Smart Agriculture & Industry: Indoor connectivity for farm buildings, warehouses, and industrial facilities.

Technical Integration

The iFemtoCell integrates into indoor LoRaWAN networks with minimal fuss:

Network server: Optional on-gateway LoRa Network Server via Wanesy™ SPN2; managed through the Wanesy™ Management Center, Web GUI, or SSH.

Backhaul: 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (integrated antenna, WPS button) + 10/100 Ethernet (RJ45) — no cellular (see the iFemtoCell-evolution for 4G).

Power: Included AC/DC supply (230 VAC / 12 VDC, 5.5×2.5 mm jack); optional 24 h UPS accessory.

Programmable: KerOS (GNU/Linux) with Python, C/C++, and Shell; SMA/RP-SMA LoRa connector with a bundled 3 dBi swivel antenna; shared software with the Wirnet™ iBTS and iStation.

Band: EU868 model (SKU PDTIOT-IFE00) — also covers IN865-867 and RU864-870.

Setup help: Talk to the shopioT technical team for provisioning, antennas, or network-server setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it have cellular backhaul?

No — the iFemtoCell uses Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz) and Ethernet backhaul. If you need an internal 3G/4G module, choose the Wirnet iFemtoCell-evolution instead.

How is it powered?

By the included AC/DC supply (230 VAC / 12 VDC, 5.5×2.5 mm jack). An optional UPS accessory provides up to 24 hours of backup autonomy.

Can it run a network server on-device?

Yes, with the optional Wanesy™ SPN2 (Small Private Network), which embeds a LoRa Network Server on the gateway for standalone, self-operating networks.

Is it suitable for deep-indoor sites?

Yes — it's designed for demanding indoor environments like basements, car parks, and elevator shafts, providing dedicated coverage and network densification.

Which band does this model use?

This is the EU868 model (SKU PDTIOT-IFE00), covering the EU863-870, IN865-867, and RU864-870 LoRaWAN regional parameters.
