o Pros: moderate costs, easy gateway implementation, easy and
cheap installation, higher data rate is possible.o Cons: shorter lifetime than 802.15.4The following figure (Figure 63 ) shows the deployment example above,
highlighting the several physical devices involved (dark green), the different
network type involved (solid horizontal lines) and the software installed per
device (white/cyan rounded boxes, cyan is for mandatory parts while cyan is for
optional elements).

Although this example is quite simple, it can be used as a building block for
more complex scenarios. In particular it is important here to understand how to
separate the different networks in the system, where to deploy each
functionality and which connectivity type to use per sub-network.
