Cómo funcionan CargoBeacon EverTag y Wirepas Mesh
Descubra cómo nuestros dispositivos EverTag y la tecnología Wirepas Mesh crean redes IoT de gran escala y autocuración para aplicaciones industriales
Cobertura global y escalabilidad
Desde patios de envío hasta hospitales, nuestras redes de malla descentralizadas eliminan el enigma de conectividad: no más planes celulares costosos ni puntos únicos de falla.
El ingrediente secreto es Wirepas Mesh: una red descentralizada donde cada dispositivo es inteligente, toma sus propias decisiones y habla directamente con los vecinos. Sin jefe central, sin punto único de falla. Cuando un dispositivo se desconecta, la red ni siquiera parpadea: encuentra instantáneamente una nueva ruta. Esta capacidad de autocuración permite redes de más de 700,000 dispositivos, demostrando realidad de nivel industrial a escala asombrosa.
ProductosLa serie EverTag de CargoBeacon se basa en la tecnología avanzada Wirepas Mesh para crear una infraestructura IoT industrial que se puede implementar rápida y fácilmente. Esta sinergia permite el seguimiento y monitoreo de activos a gran escala tanto en interiores, exteriores como en diversas instalaciones.

Vea nuestra explicación detallada de cómo CargoBeacon EverTag y Wirepas Mesh funcionan juntos
The core of the system is the Wirepas Mesh protocol, a decentralized mesh wireless communication protocol designed for high reliability, unlimited scale, and energy efficiency.
Decentralized Intelligence and Network Formation
The network operates without any centralized control mechanisms; all intelligence is embedded within the devices (nodes) themselves.
- Autonomy: Each device autonomously selects its role, maintains connections, and optimizes its routing paths based on its local environment
- Routing: Every device is capable of routing data using cost-based routing, finding the most optimal route back to the gateway
- Components: The system consists of EverTags (nodes), configured as either asset tags or static Anchors, with Gateways acting as bridges
Reliability and Operational Modes
Wirepas Mesh is built for industrial-grade reliability with no single point of failure.
- Self-Healing: If a node fails or a gateway breaks down, remaining devices automatically re-organize and find alternate routes
- Packet Reliability: Data exchange is highly reliable with point-to-point messaging, acknowledgment, and automatic re-transmissions
- Low Energy Mode (LE): Designed for ultra-low power consumption, allowing even routers to be battery-operated with 5-10 year battery life
- Low Latency Mode (LL): Intended for faster data transmission and higher throughput, typically used for mains-powered devices
EverTags utilize the Wirepas network for location reporting and sensor data collection, powered by the high-end Nordic nRF52840 chipset.
EverTag Mesh Roles and Tracking
EverTags are deployed with specific Wirepas roles optimized for asset tracking.
- Anchor: Static tags that form the industrial mesh network, enabling a range of up to 200m
- Tag - NRLS (Non-Router Long Sleep): Used for mobile asset tracking with long sleep intervals (hours to days)
- Localization: The system provides 5m accuracy with location reports every 5 minutes, requiring no maintenance for over 5 years
Sensor Capabilities
EverTags are equipped with various sensors depending on the model.
- Movement and Utilization Data: All models include accelerometers and gyroscopes to detect movement, tilt, and usage patterns
- Temperature: Standard tags include on-chip temperature sensors, with EverTag T Mesh offering +/- 0.1°C accuracy
- Environmental Monitoring: EverTag SL Mesh includes dedicated sound and light sensors for indoor environment optimization
- Industrial I/O: EverTag I/O offers digital input/output capabilities, connecting to PLCs or alarms with 24V signal support
Dual Connectivity (BLE Beaconing)
EverTags complement Wirepas Mesh by advertising their presence using Bluetooth Low Energy beaconing.
- Global Reach: Ensures tags are readable by stationary gateways, mobile gateways, and smartphone apps
- Low-Latency Notifications: Perfect complement for real-time alerts outside the primary mesh network
- Universal Compatibility: Works with CargoBeacon, iBeacon, and other BLE protocols
The system minimizes setup time by utilizing NFC technology and the specialized mobile application for configuration.
The CB Admin Mobile App Features
The CB Admin Mobile App is the dedicated tool designed to simplify configuration and management of EverTags.
- NFC Integration: Simply scan (tap) the EverTag to instantly access and update configuration data
- Multi-Tap Feature: Update several EverTags simultaneously with the same settings for efficient deployment
- Configuration Profiles: Create custom profiles that can be password-protected and shared across projects
- Enhanced Security: Set six-digit or alphanumeric NFC PIN to protect EverTags in public settings
Network Security and Maintenance
Comprehensive security and update capabilities ensure long-term reliability.
- Provisioning: Wirepas Provisioning protocol securely transmits network parameters and security keys to new nodes
- Security: AES128 encryption on the link layer for all messaging and signaling prevents unauthorized access
- Over-The-Air Programming (OTAP): Remotely update entire network firmware and application code for maximum lifecycle
- Tampering Detection: Receive instant alerts if someone attempts to remove an anchor
