Installation and operating instructions
IoT gateway outdoor
1. General information
1.1. Intended use
Operational safety is only guaranteed if the product is
used as intended by the manufacturer. No liability is
assumed for damage caused by other applications. Any
modifications are only permitted with approval from the
manufacturer. Otherwise the manufacturer's declaration
is invalidated.
1.2. Safety instructions
If it is necessary to establish a new power connec-
tion, the installation and commissioning must only be
performed by trained qualified specialists. Only trained
qualified electricians may work on electrical systems.
They must be able to assess the work assigned to them
at all times, detect any potential sources of danger and
adopt appropriate safety measures. The installation
work must only be performed in a de-energised state.
Valid specifications and standards are to be observed.
During assembly of the gateway, the applicable national
standards are to be observed on setting up antennae
systems.
2. Product description
2.1. Intended use
The ZENNER IoT Gateways use high-performance
LoRaWAN® technology, whose excellent building
penetration and long-range network coverage generally
ensure the connectivity of IoT sensors even under chal-
lenging environmental and installation conditions.
The Outdoor Gateway is ideally suited for LoRa network
coverage in rural and urban areas to receive values from
multiple sensors. The device can be used across various
sectors for a variety of IoT applications and is an integral
part of ZENNER IoT system solutions. With a few gate-
ways, entire cities can already be covered.
Due to the very robust housing made of coated alumi-
num, the Outdoor Gateway is very resilient to extreme
weather conditions and is characterized by a high
degree of reliability. In addition to the two external LoRa
antennas, the ZENNER IoT Gateway Outdoor also uses
an external LTE antenna to ensure the best possible con-
nection to the backend.

2.2. Scope of delivery
The gateway is delivered in a partially assembled state.
Depending on the assembly situation to be imple-
mented, various preparations and assembly steps are
necessary. Furthermore, it may be necessary to acquire
additional assembly materials that are not included in
the scope of delivery.

2.3. Installation location
In order to gain optimum LoRaWAN network coverage,
an installation location which is as high as possible is
recommended due to various technological advan-
tages. For example, if an attic is available with potential
installation space, this installation location should be
preferred.
After selecting the preferred installation location, you
should test the cellular network connection in this
location prior to attaching it.
