Qwiic LoRa Gateway - development kit with ESP32 and LoRa

Description

Development kit with WiFi and Bluetooth module ESP-WROOM-32 and LoRa RFM95W modem. The LoRa module enables radio communication in the 915 MHz band. The kit allows you to transform LoRa radio messages into data packets that can be accessed via the Internet. Due to its small dimensions, the set is perfect for projects related to IoT (Internet of Things). For communication over shorter distances (up to 1.5 km), the user can connect a short antenna with a length of approx. 7.6 cm to the ANT pin, while communication over longer distances, an antenna with better parameters is required, connected to the u.FL connector. The kit is programmed using the Arduino IDE. On the product page, you can find the Arduino tutorial and library and numerous examples.
