VoBo Endpoints A VoBo™ is an industrial grade endpoint that enables almost any sensor to be used for industrial LoRaWAN® solutions.
Transform wired sensors that you trust, meet your specifications, and already have into wireless sensors.
Turn stranded data into actionable data.
Monitor hazardous and remote locations safely
New insights from legacy instrumentation
Reduce site visits and manual data collection
How it Works
The VoBo:
1. Powers sensors to take measurements
2. Reads the sensor output signals
3. Processes the measurement into a meaningful value
4. Converts it to a LoRaWAN payload
5. Transmits the data to your LoRaWAN network using the LoRa radio standard

COMPATIBLE SENSOR OUTPUTS
A single VoBo can read multiple sensors, of different output protocols, and efficiently transmit their payloads.
The VoBo accepts sensor outputs such as:
- 4-20 mA loop and externally powered sensors
- 0-5 and 0-10 V voltage sensors
- Dry contact and voltage switches
- Pulse Counting and Totalizing
- NAMUR, PNP, NPN
- Modbus RTU devices, RS485 and RS232
- Thermocouples (RTDs coming soon)
- Wired HART/ 4-20mA (coming soon)
- Most other sensors can be read with the addition of an interface

Regulatory Compliance
The VoBo utilizes LoRa, a long-range, low power, radio technology used in LoRaWAN networks. These networks are very cost-effective to deploy and scalable. The VoBo further reduces costs in many cases by eliminating cabling requirements for communications and power to the measurement points. The standards for LoRa and LoRaWAN are overseen by the LoRa Alliance. Volley Boast is a member of the LoRa Alliance. Additional information on LoRa and LoRaWAN can be found at lora-alliance.org.
