The newest addition to the MikroTik IoT product family – KNOT – is a truly universal device

with exceptional connectivity options and protocol support. It is an IoT Gateway that uses

Narrow Band and CAT-M technology. Because of the low cost, low bandwidth cellular

connection, it is supported by countless mobile operators around the globe.

It doesn’t matter whether you have devices that are no longer in production, devices that

came out this year, or even some custom solutions by your technician – the KNOT can help

you integrate or “tie” them all together in a single system.

KNOT can monitor onboard GPIOs, convert Modbus protocol to TCP, and even forward

Bluetooth packets to TCP/IP network via HTTPS and MQTT.

You can use the KNOT as a TCP bridge from wired Modbus sensors to send readings to a

Modbus server. Yes, the KNOT brings wireless connectivity to wired sensors and actuators,

such as electricity meters and relays.

CAT-M brings better connectivity to host - reach even previously unavailable places!

It could be used as a backup connection for the Ethernet or as a management channel for

your network. NB/CAT-M monthly plan is much cheaper than LTE. Why spend extra money

on bandwidth you don’t need? For example, you can manage a KNOT-powered vending

machine with temperature and moisture sensors with only a few megabytes per day!
