The on-site control point for EpiSensor deployments

The EpiSensor Gateway is where wireless sensing, field integration, site connectivity, local buffering, and Edge software come together. It is designed for commercial and industrial rollouts where reliability, retrofit speed, and protocol flexibility matter more than brochure features.

What It Does

Collect from the field, keep data safe on site, and deliver it upstream cleanly

The gateway is the hub of every EpiSensor deployment. It manages the wireless sensor network, aggregates site data, buffers it locally, and exports it to upstream systems using standard industrial and web protocols. That makes it equally useful for straightforward monitoring projects and more complex multi-system integrations.

For customers, that means fewer moving parts between “meter installed” and “data usable in the platform”.

Wireless + Retrofit

Built for rollouts where cabling, downtime, and access are the real constraints

The gateway coordinates the EpiSensor wireless network, which is what makes retrofit rollouts practical across occupied buildings, distributed assets, and difficult electrical rooms. Instead of treating communications cabling as a given, the platform is built around fast deployment and site reality.

That is why the gateway matters commercially as well as technically: it reduces friction at exactly the point where monitoring projects usually get expensive.

Site Connectivity

Ethernet, cellular, and site-ready export paths

Real projects run across mixed estates. Some sites have good IT support. Some need independent cellular backhaul. Some need scheduled exports, some need APIs, some need MQTT. The gateway is built to support those realities without changing the sensor estate underneath.

This also makes the gateway a strong fit for multi-site programs where rollout consistency matters more than designing every site from scratch.

Protocol Delivery

Deliver site data into the software stack you already use

The gateway exports using standard protocols and data formats so EpiSensor can fit into EnergyCAP, MRI eSight, Dexma, Energy Elephant, custom dashboards, and broader BMS or industrial workflows. You are not forced into a single downstream platform just because the hardware is on site.

That open delivery model is one of the most commercially important parts of the product.

Part Of A System

Gateway on site. Edge for local logic. Core for fleet operations.

The gateway is strongest when positioned as part of the broader EpiSensor system. Edge adds local software logic, protocol translation, and packaged integrations on the gateway itself. Core adds remote management, rollout, and monitoring across fleets of gateways and sites.

That is the architecture story the website should keep repeating.

Where It Fits

Typical gateway-led deployments

Wireless submetering rollouts

Use one gateway per site or per zone to aggregate power, pulse, environmental, and Modbus data for energy monitoring programs.

Retrofit BMS and EMS integration

Collect real-world building data and export it into existing platforms without replacing the customer’s whole software stack.

Demand response and DER telemetry

Combine on-site data acquisition, local logic, and resilient export paths for flexibility and grid services projects.

Partner and OEM solutions

Deploy a repeatable site runtime that supports packaged integrations, remote updates, and a consistent operating model.
