Description
LoRa Radio Module, powered by Semtech's Sx1276, revolutionizes long-range, low-data-rate communication. Designed for operation in unlicensed ISM and LPRD bands, this cost-effective sub-1 GHz transceiver module offers impressive frequency spectrum modulation/demodulation, multi-channel operation, high bandwidth efficiency, and exceptional anti-blocking performance. Enjoy a robust and reliable wireless link effortlessly.
The module offers two versatile modes: Standard mode and Star network mode. In Standard mode, it functions as a transparent data radio modem, communicating with the host using a preset data format without the need for encoding/decoding. In Star network mode, one module is configured as the central node, while others serve as node modules. Communication between the central and node modules is bidirectional, although node modules cannot communicate with each other. Please note that this module does not include the LoRaWAN protocol, meaning the star network feature operates using its own protocol and is not compatible with LoRaWAN.
