IoA – IoT for Antennas
Antenna Alignment Sensor
IoA – IoT for Antennas is an IoT antenna sensor that monitors alignment in three dimensions: azimuth, tilt, and roll. IoA utilizes LTE CAT-M1/NBIoT to alert of undesired changes to all antennas being monitored.
Real-Time Antenna Alignment Monitoring
IoA offers real-time antenna alignment monitoring on all wireless network antenna arrays. Data captured with IoA’s patented monitoring technology is made available over the cloud, allowing operators to remotely view the history of all physical antenna alignment changes.

From the Field to Your Desk
Each antenna can be individually identified on a tower or throughout the entire network. With IoA, operators can set thresholds for changes in azimuth, tilt, and roll. When these thresholds are exceeded, an alarm will be generated, and the operator will be notified immediately. In case of emergencies, priority lists can be easily created using available alignment data, allowing for faster disaster recovery.
Easy to Set Up
Installing IoA is a quick process designed with the technician in mind. Simply insert an IoT-enabled SIM card and attach IoA to the back of the antenna to start reporting antenna alignment data to the cloud. Use the software to set alignment thresholds.
Quality Standards
Every IoA device is designed to surpass performance standards required for wireless monitoring products. It has a battery lifetime of 5+ years* and strictly enforced waterproof sealing standards-IP67.
*Note: Depending on reporting frequency.
