Vantiva Unveils IoT Commercial Gateway for Smart Properties

Posted by Modern Storage Media on Oct 8, 2024 1:26:41 PM
Vantiva has announced the launch of the Vantiva IoT Commercial Gateway, a network infrastructure solution designed specifically for commercial properties such as self-storage facilities, multifamily housing, hotels, and retail buildings. This new gateway delivers site-wide connectivity with triband Wi-Fi 6E and five different IoT radios, offering a secure and future-proof foundation for Vantiva’s Smart Spaces solutions.
 
The Vantiva IoT Commercial Gateway is an all-in-one access point with both wired and wireless network access, featuring wired WAN and LAN ports and powerful triband Wi-Fi 6E. The Vantiva IoT Gateway leverages EasyMesh v.R5 for simple, scalable mesh network deployment, while Full Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) ensures reliable, long-distance building-to-building Wi-Fi connectivity. The gateway supports private and Guest SSID networks, simplifying secure network access for guests and employees.
 
The gateway features an array of IoT radios with built-in support for leading 2.4GHz and sub-gigahertz protocols, as well as three software-programmable IoT radios to support additional protocols. These high-performance Wi-Fi and IoT radios and associated RF and antennae designs allow signals to travel longer distances and penetrate steel, concrete, and other traditional commercial building materials, providing uninterrupted connectivity for critical applications like access control, security, video, monitoring, presence detection, thermostats and more.
 
“This gateway is more than just a connectivity solution; it’s a platform for growth,” says Reza Raji, Senior Vice President of Smart Spaces IoT for Vantiva. “The flexible design and broad protocol support not only meets current commercial connectivity needs, but also anticipates and enables adaption to future technological advancements.”
 
The Vantiva IoT Commercial Gateway can be deployed wherever needed indoors or outdoors. It features an IP65-rated enclosure and has been rated for operation in temperatures ranging from -40° F (-40° C) to 130° F (55° C). The included mounting kit allows installation on a wall, ceiling or pole. Optional PoE makes it easy to extend power to any location.
 
“As one of the world’s largest gateway providers, Vantiva has the expertise to design a comprehensive commercial networking solution and the scale to offer it at a very accessible price point,” says Raji. “Compared to other commercial access points, the Vantiva IoT Commercial Gateway can reduce network infrastructure costs by 80% - 90%, lowering the barrier to site upgrades and accelerating returns on technology investments.”
 
The gateway integrates with Vantiva Smart Spaces cloud-based software solutions such as Vantiva Smart Storage (VSS), which provides comprehensive tools for self-storage remote site management, monitoring, and revenue-generating services. Vantiva’s cloud-based connectivity solutions empower businesses to improve security, optimize operations, and offer technology-based customer experience enhancements.
