Cisco Connected Grid Module - IEEE 802.15.4e/g WPAN 900 MHz - for Router
Utilities looking to deploy standards-based communications to millions of endpoints should consider the Cisco CGR 1000 Series with the WPAN module. The module provides dynamic, automated network discovery and self-healing. And its multi-hop mesh networking delivers a high endpoint-to-collector ratio of up to 5000 endpoints per CGR 1000.
Connected Grid WPAN Modules are tightly integrated with the network services of CGR 1000 routers. For example, the CGR 1000 provides Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Route Policy Language (RPL)-based routing for high availability and network reliability to endpoints connected to the wireless mesh. RPL is the standard for IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks.
The WPAN module, along with CGR 1000 software, also provides robust security features for access control, device identity, key management, and encryption. It offers four levels of quality of service (QoS). Together, the WPAN module and CGR 1000 routers provide comprehensive network statistics that help network operators quickly identify and troubleshoot connectivity issues.

Advantech Advanced Industrial LoRa/LoRaWAN Wireless I/O Module - for Server
LPWAN is a type of wireless telecommunication wide area network designed to allow long range communications at a low data rate among IoT applications, such as sensors operated on a battery. Its benefits is to offer multi-year battery lifetime for sensors/ applications to send small amounts of data over long distances a few times per hour suitable for different environments.

Private LoRa and LoRaWAN are one of category of LPWAN which belong to the non-cellular LPWAN wireless communication network protocols enables very long range transmissions with low power consumption, operating in the non-licensed spectrum.
Star Topology
The LoRaWAN networks in a star topology have gateway relaying the data between the sensor nodes and the network server.
Communication between the sensor nodes and the gateway goes over the wireless channel utilizing the LoRa physical layer, whilst the connection between the gateways and the central server are handled over a backbone IP-based network.
The LoRaWAN end nodes(sensors) typically use Low Power and are battery powered (Class A and Class C). LoRa embedded sensors that run on batteries that lasts from 2-5 years typically. The LoRa sensors can transmit signals over distances from 1km-10km.$234.28
