RN2483 LoRa Technology Mote

The RN2483 LoRa Technology Mote is a Class A end-device based on the Microchip's RN2483 LoRa modem. It is a standalone battery-powered node. Figure 1 shows the image of a Microchip RN2483 LoRa Technology mote. The mote provides a convenient platform to quickly demonstrate the long-range capabilities of the modem, as well as to verify inter-operability when connecting to LoRaWAN v1.0 compliant gateways and infrastructure.

A standard USB interface is provided for connection to a host computer, providing a bridge to the UART interface of the RN2483 modem. As with all Microchip RN family of products, this enables rapid setup and control of the onboard LoRaWAN protocol stack using the high-level ASCII command set.
