EchoStar Mobile Limited, an EchoStar (Nasdaq: SATS) company, and
The Things Industries announced a collaboration to deploy hybrid
satellite and LoRa® Internet of Things (IoT) solutions
to businesses across Europe. The
companies have incorporated EchoStar's satellite IoT capabilities

a dual-transport, generic node.

"With plug-and-play simplicity, this collaboration between
EchoStar Mobile and The Things Network enables terrestrial and
satellite transports to be integrated easily into the same node or
module for IoT applications," said Telemaco
Melia, vice president and general manager, EchoStar Mobile.
"It's a breakthrough that enables cost-effective IoT deployments
with seamless coverage so customers can be sure their devices
remain connected anytime, anywhere, within the service area – even
in the most remote places."
"LoRa technology has previously been confined by the limits of
terrestrial infrastructure. EchoStar's innovative, integrated
approach to satellite connectivity breaks this barrier. Our
collaboration provides all the key features of our generic node
combined with the wide area reach of the EchoStar network to enable
smooth, universal LoRaWAN access, wherever the user may be," said
Wienke Giezeman, CEO, The Things Industries.
The collaboration introduces satellite connectivity to The
Things Stack LoRaWAN Network Server and its Generic Node Concept
Edition, enabling customers to extend the reach and reliability of
their connected IoT devices with one click. With the satellite
capability – and a limited-time free trial for each device
connected – businesses can effortlessly expand their IoT
deployments to remote and challenging locations.
Last year, EchoStar Mobile unveiled its pan-European
LoRa-enabled IoT network, which is now delivering bi-directional,
real-time LoRa connectivity for customers across Europe. Integration with The Things Stack
Cloud propels this offering to a global scale, powering
multi-country service continuity for customers in sectors such as
utilities, transportation, logistics and agritech.
At the world's premier LoRaWAN event, The Things Conference,
21-22 September in Amsterdam, the
companies will showcase hybrid satellite-terrestrial IoT
connectivity along with The Things Industries' Generic Node Concept
Edition.
