BEACON MANAGEMENT

New version and software

BlueBeacon Gateway W

Unit price from €139 *
BlueBeacon Gateway W is a BLE-beacon gateway with BT5-ready BLE module and LAN/WLAN interface that allows to communicate with BLE beacons (new software manages both scanning for generic BLE beacons and connecting to BlueBeacon beacons).
BlueBeacon Gateway W is provided in an elegant plastic enclosure suitable for wall or ceiling installation. It is available in two versions:
- W/A05: with internal 5dB-directive BLE antenna;
- W/SMA: with SMA connector for external BLE antenna.
Possible applications with BlueBeacon Gateway W are:
- remote monitoring and management of beacons;
- localization of BLE beacons (tags) for RTLS and access control.

iBeacon technology creates a small area of detection for Bluetooth 4.0 enabled mobile devices. BlueBeacon devices uses iBeacon licensed technology, and have been certified by BlueUp to meet Apple Proximity Beacon Specifications
Eddystone is a protocol specification that defines BLE formats for proximity beacon advertising, with different frame types that may be used individually or in combinations to create beacons that can be used for a variety of applications. BlueBeacon devices are certified from Google.
