LoRa Edge Development Kit

This kit features Semtech's LoRa Edge LR1110 and comes configured for the 915MHz frequency band for North America, the 868MHz band for Europe, or the 490MHz band for China and Asia. The LR1110 is an ultra-low power platform that integrates a LoRa transceiver, a multi-constellation Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) scanner and a passive Wi-Fi AP MAC scanner. The LR1110 is able to achieve very low energy and quickly locate devices by offloading the time-intensive and compute-intensive geolocation solver operation to the LoRa Cloud services, which are used in conjunction with LR1110 devices and integrated via your network server.
