In this study, Long Range (Lora) 433 MHz and 915 MHz were applied as data transmission media on the ZP box monitoring tool. The ZP box is one of the axle counter equipment located outdoors and a protector of the VUR module from the effects of weather. The comparative test of the performance of Lora 433 MHz and 915 MHz as data transmission media was carried out by considering the parameters of distance, RSSI, packet loss, and delay. The distance test shows that the relationship between the distance of the transmitter and receiver with the RSSI value is inversely proportional. In the RSSI test, Lora 433 MHz has better RSSI performance compared to Lora 915 MHz at distance variations of 158 m, 284 m, 483 m, and 842 m. In the packet loss test, Lora 915 MHz has better performance than Lora 433 Mhz at distance variations of 284 m, 483 m, and 842 m. In terms of data transmission delay, LoRa 915 MHz sends data faster than LoRa 433 MHz with a speed difference of 8%.
