Lobaro IoT Platform

Lobaro Platform Logo

The Lobaro IoT Platform is a scalable solution for device and data management of IoT gateways and sensors, and for integrating IoT data into customer applications. It is optimised for all Lobaro products and supports a wide range of IoT protocols for connecting third-party hardware as well.

Key Features

Device Management

  • Remote configuration of IoT devices
  • FOTA: Signed over-the-air firmware updates
  • Mass import for devices, planning of larger deployments

Data & Integration

  • High-efficiency time-series database
  • Horizontal scalable data pipeline
  • Multi-tenancy (multi-level)
  • User management including role-based access control

External Integrations

Forward received data to third-party systems via:

  • REST API (HTTP)
  • HTTP Forward
  • MQTT Forward
  • SFTP Upload (CSV)
  • CSV Export

Device APIs

The platform receives data from IoT devices over multiple protocols:

ProtocolNotes
CoAP via UDP / DTLSUsed by Lobaro LTE/NB-IoT devices
MQTT(S)
HTTP(S)
LoRaWAN (LNS)ChirpStack, TTN/TTI, Element IoT, Niotix, Actility, Loriot, Wanesy

MQTT Broker Module

The integrated MQTT broker is ready to use out of the box — secure, standards-compliant, and open to existing infrastructure:

  • Seamless connection of all Lobaro sensors and gateways (automatic provisioning)
  • Supports all MQTT-compatible third-party devices (MQTT 3.1.1 & 5.0)
  • Broker Bridge: connects the platform to existing MQTT brokers (Mosquitto, HiveMQ, AWS IoT, etc.) — Lobaro devices attached to a third-party broker remain fully manageable (FOTA, remote config)
  • Integrated web client for live monitoring and diagnostics — no tool download required
  • TLS encryption and authentication active by default; ACL access control at topic level
  • Multi-tenancy: strict isolation between tenants and devices

wM-Bus / M-Bus Parser

The integrated M-Bus parser decodes M-Bus and wireless M-Bus telegrams directly to human-readable JSON — on-premise, no external service required:

  • M-Bus (EN 13757) and wireless M-Bus (OMS) decoding
  • AES-128 decryption (Modes 3, 5, 7, 9 and others)
  • Key management for encrypted wM-Bus devices
  • Compatible with meters from all major manufacturers
  • Included in all platform licences; also available as a standalone licence

Supported Devices

  • ✅ All Lobaro devices
  • ✅ Metering gateways: Lobaro wM-Bus Gateway, QUNDIS Q Gateway 6 Direct, Lansen Wireless M-Bus Gateway
  • ✅ All MQTT-compatible third-party devices
