IoT LoRa Node Shield for Arduino

The IoT LoRa Node Shield for Arduino enables the creation of a cost-effective LoRa node when paired with an Arduino, and it can be configured to operate across a range of frequencies to suit your region. Featuring the RAK811 LoRa module with a fully embedded LoRaWAN stack, this shield simplifies the development of long-range, low-power wireless applications.

Communicating over UART and using only 3 GPIO pins on the Arduino, the shield integrates seamlessly with your existing projects. It supports both LoRaWAN and LoRaP2P connection modes, offering flexibility for various network topologies. With a low power design that consumes less than 50mA during transmission, it is well-suited for battery-powered and energy-efficient deployments.

The shield includes a u.FL connector for adding a different antenna or connecting an external antenna to integrate into your project enclosure. The kit contents include the LoRa Node Shield and a user guide, providing everything you need to get started.
