RAK7243 WisGate Developer D3

Thank you for choosing RAK7243 WisGate Developer D3 in your awesome IoT Project! 🎉 To help you get started, we have provided you with all the necessary documentation for your product.

NOTE

Purchasing the RAK2013 WisLink Cellular Pi Hat separately with the intent of adding a cellular feature in your existing RAK7243 WisGate Developer Gateway is not possible. Hence, purchase the RAK7243C/7244C instead, as it is a specifically modified gateway that is composed of RAK2245 and RAK2013.

Product Description

The RAK7243 WisGate Developer D3 Gateway is a device that consists of Raspberry Pi 3B+, RAK2245 Pi HAT, which includes a GPS module, and a heat sink for better performance and thermal heat dissipation management. Its housing is built with an aluminum casing.

For the built-in RAK2245 Pi HAT, the SX1301 chip from Semtech is used, which is a built-in LPWAN concentrator IP core, a powerful digital signal processing engine. It can receive up to 8 LoRa packets simultaneously sent with different spreading factors on different channels and is available in multiple variants, so it can be used for international standard bands. This unique capability allows for the implementation of innovative network architectures advantageous over other short-range systems.

Pilot Gateway Pro is ideal for prototyping, proof-of-concept demonstration, or evaluation. It includes a ready-to-use gateway OS that can be connected to a LoRaWan server. Also, it is developer-friendly and even for not-so-techy users to set up the LoRaWan system. It has to be the best value and function for connectivity to address a variety of applications like Smart Grid, Intelligent Farm, and other IoT enterprise applications.
