Why Choose the ABB INS-LoRa Communication Module?
The ABB INS-LoRa, order code 2CMA268135R1000, is a dedicated LoRa communication expansion module for the ABB SCU200 InSite energy management system. It enables device and energy monitoring data collected by the SCU200 to be transmitted wirelessly to compatible public or private LoRa networks through LoRa gateways.
Designed as a plug-in expansion module, the INS-LoRa connects directly to the SCU200 modular bus, providing a compact method of adding long-range wireless communication to an InSite installation. The module is powered through the connected system and incorporates status and connection LEDs for straightforward visual indication of operating and communication conditions.
An SMA connection for an external 868 MHz antenna provides the radio interface, with ABB's INS-ATE antenna available as the recommended antenna option. This combination makes the INS-LoRa suitable for energy monitoring applications where SCU200 data needs to be transmitted over LoRa infrastructure without relying solely on conventional wired network connectivity.
Key Advantages
- Adds LoRa communication capability to compatible ABB SCU200 energy monitoring systems.
- Enables wireless transmission of SCU200 device data to public or private LoRa networks via LoRa gateways.

LoRa Connectivity for ABB InSite Energy Monitoring
The INS-LoRa extends the communication capabilities of the ABB SCU200 by providing a wireless route between the InSite energy management system and LoRa infrastructure. Electrical and device information collected by the SCU200 can be transmitted through the INS-LoRa to a compatible LoRa gateway, allowing the data to be passed into public or private LoRa networks for further processing and integration.
The module connects directly to the SCU200 expansion architecture rather than operating as a separate standalone gateway. An external 868 MHz antenna connects through the SMA interface, while dedicated LEDs provide visual indication of module status and LoRaWAN connectivity. This modular approach allows LoRa functionality to be added where required while retaining the compact DIN-rail architecture of the InSite system.
Typical Applications
- ABB SCU200 InSite energy management systems.
- Wireless transmission of energy monitoring data.
- Connection of SCU200 installations to LoRa gateways.
- Public and private LoRa network integration.
- Commercial and industrial energy monitoring.
- Building and facility energy management.
- Remote electrical distribution monitoring.
- Sites where long-range wireless data communication is required.
