Information
General
NAP is a gateway equipment that comes in three versions.
These are categorized by the capability of internet connection.
NAP3 connects the Sigfox cloud platform to an wired Ethernet
cable or through Wi-Fi connection.
NAP5 features a built-in Cellular module which supports LTE Cat
M1 as a default capability. (LTE Cat1 is a customized option for
user). NAP5 doesn’t support a wired network or Wi-Fi. (only LTE
support)
NAP7 connects to Sigfox Cloud via an existing LAN infrastructure
(Ethernet or Wi-Fi) or cellular network.
It features the ability to automatically switch networks if en-
countering an issue on the network, as well as checking net-
work backhaul to support seamless data service.
Improve Sigfox Device Coverage Indoor
With the multiple backhaul capability, NAP can be installed at
customer premises where Ethernet, Wi-Fi and LTE are available.
This can be installed for indoor or rural outdoor with IP61 enclo-
sure such as attics, underground, warehouses, buildings, shops,
farms, offices and etc.
It can be installed in a Sigfox radio-shaded area that is out of
signal range of existing access stations to further increase cov-
erage.

Before You Start
This quick start guide will take you through the few steps
required to connect and start using your station.
This guide is based on NAP-7.
NAP-3 / NAP-5 have different number of antennae.
Please refer to “Interface” in this guide.
This “Before you start” is a session for the physical installation of the
NAP device to the Ethernet and LTE environment.
Regarding the Wi-Fi configuration or the other connection process,
please refer to the session “Activation / Configuration”.
The locational information including GNSS coordinates
MUST be entered during the configuration.

“In the case of NAP-7, Multi-Backhaul (LTE, Ethernet, Wi-Fi) function is
provided, but if you want to connect two or more backhauls at the
same time, you need to set up primary and secondary backhaul.
At this time, basic Internet communication is performed with the
backhaul set as the primary, and if the primary backhaul becomes
unable to communicate, it operates as the secondary backhaul as
the backup backhaul.
After that, when the primary backhaul returns to normal, communica-
tion is resumed as the primary backhaul.”
