New module now supports and provides global
LoRaWAN® network coverage ideal for asset tracking applications in
hazardous work environments
Semtech Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a leading global supplier of
high performance analog and mixed-signal semiconductors and
advanced algorithms, announced that CWD Limited (BSE: CWD), an
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) company and India’s
premier Internet of Things (IoT) design house, has developed a dual
combo module incorporating Semtech’s LoRa Connect™ platform and the
LoRaWAN® standard connectivity as well as Bluetooth® Low Energy
(BLE) to optimize high data rate, long range wireless communication
for IoT device connectivity.

The CWD CBTLRM02 dual combo module is utilized in smart utility
meters and wearables with Semtech’s LoRa Connect (SX1262) System on
Chip (SoC) for communication in the 150MHz to 960MHz bands for
LoRa® combined with BLE for the 2.4GHz ISM band. This provides
extended range at extremely low power to enable a multitude of
applications such as asset tracking, agriculture and horticulture
sensors, and industrial automation. Additionally, by hosting the
software stack and business logic on the board, the need for an
external microcontroller unit (MCU) and external antennas are
eliminated, significantly reducing product bill of materials
costs.
“With the dual wireless capabilities of LoRaWAN and BLE, the CWD
module makes any IoT device extremely power efficient while also
providing an extensively rich feature set,” said Siddhartha Xavier,
chief strategy officer, CWD. “Our recent deployments have
underscored the capabilities of LoRa devices, known for long range,
low power, and LoRaWAN for cost-effective end-to-end
communication.”
CWD’s dual combo module is integrated in ATEX certified smart ID
cards that are currently deployed in hazardous work environments
such as oil rigs, mines and construction sites where it is
imperative to ensure employee safety. The easy-to-deploy devices
track and monitor the mobility of employees at heights and depths
over 2km and send SOS alerts when detecting potential emergency
situations. The smart ID cards are also being rolled out in
hospitals to track staff and patients.
“Hybrid solutions for IoT devices bring what once were
considered competing technologies into a holistic offering that
leverages the strengths of different connectivity protocols,” said
Marc Pégulu, vice president and general manager for Semtech’s
Wireless and Sensing Products Group. “Semtech’s LoRa Connect
portfolio combined with complementary connectivity options, like
BLE, provide customers with broader geographic coverage for asset
tracking devices while making network deployments much less
complicated.”
