RAK7267 WisGate Soho Pro Datasheet

Overview

Description

The RAK7267 WisGate Soho Pro is an innovative 8-channel LoRaWAN® gateway designed for outdoor deployments. It supports Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity.

This gateway uses an IP67-rated Unify Enclosure, a weatherproof and flame-retardant enclosure made of UV stabilized ABS plastic that protects internal components from dust and water. The new enclosure is designed to allow the LoRa, LTE, Wi-Fi, and GPS antennas to be inside the enclosure.

In addition, RAK7267 operates under WisGateOS 2, which is built on the latest OpenWrt kernel. The OS Web UI features a new design and supports multiple extension installations, enabling remote management using WisDM for personalized gateway customization.
