Eleven-x selects OrbiWise to power Canada’s first LoRa Network

OrbiWise’s cloud-based UbiQ LNS Solution provides the control and maintenance function over all elements of a LoRa Network – from devices to gateways to servers to back-end customer interfaces. Eleven-x’s LoRa Network in its first phase will cover SouthWestern Ontario, but will rapidly expand to cover the nation from coast to coast. Eleven-x’s launch will mark the first commercial deployment of LoRa in Canada. As part of the first phase, the network will utilize LoRa’s outstanding long range and low power radio characteristics to power Smart City IoT applications such as smart metering, lighting and parking – but the applications are almost endless.

“OrbiWise is excited to be part of eleven-x’s groundbreaking LoRa network for Canada. Our UbiQ, carrier grade LNS solution utilizing the LoRaWAN standard is ideal for eleven-x’s smart city and other applications ” according to Domenico Arpaia, CEO of OrbiWise.

‘We are committed to building a national, carrier grade LoRa network, and found an ideal partner in OrbiWise. We selected OrbiWise’s cloud-based UbiQ LoRa Core Network software suite for our IoT network after an analysis of competitive solutions, and believe it will best meet our objectives’ said Fraser Gibbs, CTO of eleven-x. Eleven-x and OrbiWise are both members of the LoRa Alliance.
