Connect your Modbus RTU sensors to your BMS systems via LoRaWAN and Modbus TCP using Milesight solutions

Schéma flux Modbus RTU vers LoRaWAN vers Modbus TCP pour GTB

As energy efficiency and smart building management become a priority, the need to interconnect sensors, controllers and building management systems (BMS) is crucial. If your sensors or meters use the Modbus RTU protocol and your BMS is compatible with Modbus TCP , you can now connect these two systems thanks to our Milesight range of LoRaWAN controllers and gateways .

Why use LoRaWAN to bridge Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP?

LoRaWAN is a wireless technology that enables data transmission over long distances with minimal power consumption, making it an ideal choice for building infrastructure. Combined with Milesight solutions, the transition between Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP protocols is simplified, even in the most complex environments.

How the Milesight solution works

Our Milesight range of controllers and gateways allows you to connect Modbus RTU devices (such as energy meters, environmental sensors, or access controllers) to your BMS using the Modbus TCP protocol. Here's how it works:

1. Connecting sensors via Modbus RTU

Your sensors or meters are connected to a Milesight LoRaWAN controller . The latter converts Modbus RTU data into a LoRaWAN signal.

2. LoRaWAN transmission

The LoRaWAN signal is transmitted to a Milesight LoRaWAN gateway , which receives and processes the data.

3. Modbus TCP Conversion

The Milesight gateway then converts the data into Modbus TCP , enabling seamless integration with your BMS, ensuring optimized management and control of your building systems.

The advantages of this solution

Long distance connectivity

Thanks to LoRaWAN technology, it is possible to connect sensors located kilometers away from the gateway, without the need for complex cabling.

Energy savings

LoRaWAN is renowned for its low power consumption, thus extending the lifespan of field devices.

Interoperability

Using Milesight gateways and controllers, you can easily integrate devices using the Modbus RTU protocol into BMS systems compatible with Modbus TCP.

Reliability and scalability

Milesight solutions provide reliable data transmission and can be easily expanded to new equipment or sites as your needs evolve.
