IoT Gateway
An IoT gateway is a device that acts as the bridge between IoT-enabled assets and the cloud platform where data is processed. It translates communication protocols, manages connectivity and ensures secure data transfer from sensors and trackers to the monitoring system.
Role in logistics and supply chains
In supply chain contexts, IoT gateways are essential for maintaining continuous connectivity in environments with varying network coverage. They ensure reliable data flow from devices, such as beacons, trackers or environmental sensors, regardless of whether assets are stationary or moving in transit.
How Connected Load Carrier uses IoT gateways
Connected Load Carrier deploys both fixed and mobile IoT gateways to guarantee uninterrupted connectivity for asset data. This allows businesses to maintain real-time visibility and ensures reliable data flow across even the most challenging supply chain environments. The result is consistent insights that strengthen operational control and decision-making.
