MeshCore · LoRa · LoRaWAN

Long-range wireless, designed and run in Canada

We design, deploy and run the networks that reach where cellular does not — across a property, a watershed, a worksite or a county. MeshCore, LoRa and LoRaWAN, from the link budget to the console.

How we work Start a conversation

  • Canadian owned and operated
  • Open protocols, no lock-in
  • Coverage modelled before you buy

Most coverage problems are solved on a map, not on a roof

Terrain, height and line of sight decide what a network can do long before anybody buys a radio. We start there — and you keep the model whether or not you hire us to build it.

Our approach

What we do

  • Placeholder: a coverage review on a laptop

    Consultation

    Mesh networking consultation: hardware and software development, site planning, coverage mapping for existing repeaters, and educational sessions for your team.

  • Placeholder: a coverage model over terrain

    Network Design & Coverage Planning

    RF design for long-range wireless: path and terrain analysis, link budgets, gateway and repeater siting, and a written coverage model you keep whoever builds the network.

    Installation and Deployment

    MeshCore repeater installation for commercial and residential property: mounting, solar or mains and PoE power, weatherproofing, commissioning and documentation.

  • Placeholder: gateway coverage across a catchment

    LoRaWAN Networks

    Private and public LoRaWAN: gateway deployment, network server selection and hosting, device onboarding and integration with the systems you already run.

    Hardware & Firmware Development

    Custom hardware and embedded firmware for long-range wireless: sensor nodes, gateways, enclosures, power budgets, and the firmware that runs on them.

    Managed Networks

    Ongoing operation of long-range wireless networks: monitoring, alerting, firmware campaigns, battery lifecycle and scheduled site maintenance.

All services

A network with no single point of failure

A cellular network is a hub with spokes: take out the hub and every spoke goes dark at once. A mesh has no hub. Every node relays for every other, so a message finds whatever path is still standing — and each node you add makes the network stronger rather than more congested.

Three protocols, chosen on the merits

  • MeshCore

    Peer-to-peer mesh for messaging and telemetry with no infrastructure at all. Every node routes for its neighbours, so coverage grows with the network.

    • No gateway required
    • Self-healing routes
    • Ideal for resilience
  • LoRaWAN

    Star topology through gateways to a network server. The right answer when you have many sensors, a fixed catchment and a need for managed device lifecycles.

    • Thousands of devices
    • Public or private server
    • Class A, B and C
  • LoRa, point to point

    The raw modulation, without a stack on top. Where two places simply need to talk and everything else would be overhead.

    • Longest single links
    • Lowest latency
    • Minimal power budget

We will tell you when the answer is no

Mesh is not right for everything, and a consultancy that never says so is selling hardware rather than advice. If fibre, an existing cellular plan or a single point-to-point link fits better, you will hear it at the first meeting rather than the third invoice.

How an engagement runs

  1. 01

    Survey

    Terrain, distances, obstructions, and where power and mounting already exist. Desk study first, site visit where the map leaves a question.
  2. 02

    Model

    A predicted link budget for every hop, and a written map of what the network will and will not reach. Yours to keep, whoever builds it.
  3. 03

    Build

    Mounting, power, weatherproofing and commissioning. Solar where there is no mains, PoE where there is, sized for a Canadian December.
  4. 04

    Hand over

    Documentation good enough that somebody else could maintain it. You should be able to run this without us — that is what makes staying with us a choice.

And the platform that runs the fleet

Maple Wireless Cloud is our platform-as-a-service for mesh networks: device management, firmware distribution, message routing and the administration around them. It speaks MeshCore today and is built so the next protocol is an addition rather than a rewrite.
  • Device and fleet management across every repeater you run
  • Firmware releases built, versioned and pushed from one place
  • An API and admin console, both documented
