MIKROTIK IoT Gateway KNOT LR8 (L14G-2ax-BT5-LR8&EG800K)

With the new KNOT Gateway, you can follow tagged equipment, pallets, containers, tools, and other assets as they pass through warehouses and terminals. But there's more: you can tie various generations of tech together! The KNOT Gateway brings remote meters, sensors, and other IoT devices into your network with BLE and long-range sub-GHz connectivity.

BLE 5.1

Turn Bluetooth broadcasts into useful, actionable data: track tagged assets, monitor telemetry, filter advertisements, and use RouterOS scripting to decide what happens next.

Long-range IoT

Go beyond Bluetooth with 868 MHz LoRa® on KNOT Gateway LR8 or 915 MHz Wi-Fi HaLow on KNOT Gateway HL9 - two sub-GHz options for IoT deployments that need to reach even further.

Three ways back to your servers

Use Gigabit Ethernet, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, or LTE Cat 1 bis for backhaul. Put the gateway where your devices are, without depending on Ethernet being available there.

RouterOS does the rest

Filter data locally, build your own logic with scripts, publish information using MQTT or HTTP, and integrate it into your preferred IoT platform with custom dashboards, notifications, and reports.
