Semtech Corporation announced rising demand for Semtech's LoRa devices and wireless radio frequency technology (LoRa Technology) with the cumulative deployment of approximately 80 million LoRa-enabled end nodes at the end of 2018, a 60% year-over-year increase, amid the burgeoning growth of the LoRaWAN based ecosystem. As Semtech's LoRa Technology has seen strong worldwide adoption, the LoRa Alliance, the fastest growing IoT alliance for Low Power Wide Area Network applications, recently announced it reached a milestone of more than 100 LoRaWAN-based network operators. With the deployment of approximately 80 million of LoRa-enabled end nodes and hundreds of thousands of LoRa-based gateways expected by early 2019, growing support from network operators drives continued opportunities for LoRa Technology expansion around the globe.
