Description
Overview
GAOTek LoRaWAN mini PCI express module with multi-channel support with small form is a LoRa gateway module with industrial standard mini pCI express form factor based on SX 1302 chipset. This mPCle module can be used in any embedded platform offering a free mpCle slot with SPI connectivity and capable of providing enough power for the module, enables low-power wide area communication capabilities to your new gateway design or existing industrial routers/computer. GL 5211 is a complete and cost efficient LoRa gateway solution offering up to ten (10) programmable parallel demodulation paths, 8 x 8 channel LoRa packet detectors, 8 x SF 5 to sF 12 LoRa demodulators and 8 x Sf 5 to SF 10 LoRa demodulators. It is capable of detecting uninterrupted combination of packets at 8 different spreading factors and 10 channels with continuous demodulation of up to 16 packets. It targets internet of Things (IOT) applications, covering up to 500 nodes per square kilometer in an environment with moderate interference.
