RAK7289V2/RAK7289CV2 WisGate Edge Pro V2 Datasheet

Overview

Description

The RAK7289V2 WisGate Edge Pro is the flagship product of RAK Edge Series. Featuring industrial-grade components, it ensures a high level of reliability.

It supports up to 16 LoRa channels and offers multi-backhaul options with Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Cellular connectivity. Additionally, it provides a dedicated port for various power options, including solar panels and batteries. Its redesigned enclosure accommodates LTE, Wi-Fi, and GPS antennas internally for enhanced aesthetics and functionality.

In addition, RAK7289V2 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.

warning

This product is intended to be powered by 12 VDC through a designated power port. The use of solar chargers is not recommended, as they may supply overvoltage, potentially damaging the device. We strongly discourage the use of such chargers with this product, and any damage incurred as a result will void the warranty.
