1. Introduction
Thank you for using LoRa interface gateway in your system work. These
LoRa gateways provide the way of connecting IoT remote units to a Local
Area Network (LAN) or Host Computer from long distance. The data
transmission via LoRa gateways mainly intended for the ISM (Industrial,
Scientific, and Medical) frequency bands at 862-936 MHz.
The gateway has been built with the module integrated many RF functions
and PA to make the maximum output power up to +20dBm.
LoRa Interface Gateways are packaged in a plastic case well suited for
industrial environments. LoRa Interface devices have different models for
converting to Ethernet/Modbus TCP, USB, Serial ports
(RS-232(half-duplex)/485) and DI/DO controller. Configuration is easy to
set up via web page and utility tool.
The following topics are covered in this chapter:
