Send big data to tiny satellites via LoRa® or LoRaWAN®.
Devices everywhere. A tsunami of data. And all hungry for IoT connectivity. No worries. Hiberband Via connects all your devices via a gateway. Data from LoRa® and LoRaWAN® sensors is collected, bundled together and transmitted through satellite. In turn, the data is transported to a ground station and onto the cloud. The perfect solution for high-density deployments. Or for devices that are located indoors, without a clear view of the sky. Collect more data. From more devices. More efficiently. The only issue could be remembering where you put every one.
How it works
One example of how Hiberband Via can help you connect your assets.
Step 1: Implement and measure
A LoRaWAN® sensor measures temperature, tracks the location of a cow, and sends it to the Hiberband Via gateway.
Step 2: Collect and send
The Hiberband Via gateway collects the data from all cows within a range of +/- 10km and sends it once or multiple times per day to the satellite.
Step 3: Receive and monitor
The farmer receives the data on his dashboard that displays the conditions of the cows, which he can now monitor from the comfort of his own home.
Gateway Specs
Hiberband Via gateway. The technical nitty gritty.
It looks simple, and it really is. Some of the greatest ideas ever invented are. Hiberband Via is a comprehensive gateway solution that offers IoT satellite connectivity to wireless sensors through satellite connectivity. Powered by a solar panel, the Hiberband Via gateway is designed to operate independently from power grids. Due to its modular design, parts can be easily swapped or upgraded. Do you have an unsupported network protocol? We have prepared the software and hardware architecture to be ready for anything.

Hiberband is the first Low Power Global Area Network (LPGAN), offered by Hiber. Hiberband delivers global connectivity for sensor and Internet of Things (IoT) related devices at affordable cost, by launching our own satellite network. This makes our service the first truly global IoT network.
Yes, Hiber has launched its first two satellites end of 2018. These satellites are in, in a polar sun-synchronous Low Earth Orbit (LEO), rotating around the earth at approximately 600km.
Our daily messaging service will be available from only a few euros per device per year.
