Without getting too technical, here’s how PoE systems work: it involves a power source (otherwise known as Power Sourcing Equipment or PSE) and devices that will be powered by that source (otherwise known as Powered Devices or PD). These devices function when they are connected together through ethernet cables. Thanks to the minimal wiring it requires, it’s likely that components needed to create a PoE system are already in place. Even with older devices that do not have built-in PoE capabilities, you can use PoE splitter devices to act as the downstream PD devices. Whether it’s being used for small or large-scale deployments, PoE systems can be easily adjusted to fit your needs and provide a single-cable solution for powering smart devices.

On another note, sustainable systems are on the rise as well.

The start of the pandemic leads to a depletion of resources, causing panic, which leads to companies and even groups of people reassessing how distribution and purchases were made, to make sure enough resources were available to go around.

Incorporating IoT meant incorporating LoRaWAN® gateways in structures such as solar panels or main servers to increase the effectiveness of communication and accuracy of the logistics whereabouts.

With LoRa modules and LoRa gateways, end-users and logistics companies can both track not only where the items are but if there needs to be a replenishment of items.

Before, we introduced what is a LoRaWAN gateway, the composition of the LoRaWAN gateway, and its working principle.

After understanding this theoretical knowledge, today I will help you to choose a LoRaWAN gateway correctly?Generally speaking, there are two points to consider when choosing a LoRaWAN gateway.

First, Whether the functional features of this gateway meet your needs, and second, what are the main deployment scenarios of this product and how to use it.This article takes the LoRaWAN gateway of the RAK series as an example and analyzes the power consumption, number of channels, antenna, range and other aspects, so that everyone can quickly choose the correct and suitable gateway.

For example: suitable for indoor and outdoor or for personal development and business.Read full article here - https://wp.me/p82TdK-4Q

The pandemic may have slowed our life down, but new experiences still abound especially in the Internet of Things (IoT).

Unlike most industries that succumbed to the challenges of the global virus, IoT is striving to provide remote solutions that help uplift struggling nations.

Most organizations worldwide have already implemented remote asset management, environmental monitoring, and contact tracing to continue operations.

As more of these solutions are needed day by day, tech leaders need more people to ensure their quality before these versions reach the public.

One of those leaders is RAKwireless.

In LoRa applications or using Helium hotspots, the following situation often occurs: Helium hotspots cannot receive other hotspot information, or data sent through terminal nodes cannot be transmitted to the LoRaWAN server, resulting in very low coverage of Helium hotspots.

Therefore, we need to use an external antenna to change this situation!Why do I need an external/outdoor antenna?This is not difficult to understand with the help of an external antenna, because Helium hotspots mainly rely on interaction with other hotspots to achieve coverage.

As we know Helium hotspots include radio communication systems, like mobile phones or two-way radios.

Therefore, only the signal is strong enough to receive more data.

Simply put, it needs to receive the RF of other Helium hotspots in order to increase the coverage of the hotspots.

Therefore, the key point to improve the coverage of Helium hotspot is to enhance the signal.

Among the devices that you should heavily invest on is a Lora Gateway kit.

LoRa gateways are routers that receive a device’s message and forward it to the IoT network.

A single gateway can help and serve thousands of devices already.Key FeaturesRAK831 LPWAN Module with Raspberry Pi3 and MAX-7Q GPS Module, based on SX1301, 433/868/915MHz.Support 433MHz / 868MHz / 915MHz communication bandBased on Semtech SX1301, half-duplex gateway moduleSupport 10 channels, 8 downlink and 1 uplink channel, 1 FSK channelRF output power of 25.2dBmReceiving sensitivity up to -139dBm, up to 15KM

Environmental sensors are one of the most common in the different Internet of Things (IoT) verticals.

Their primary purpose is to analyze trends and patterns of air pollutants in the atmosphere - the gas layer surrounding a light blue body, like the Earth.The environmental monitoring depends entirely on the scenario where you intend to apply it.

However, among the most relevant environmental monitoring aims to ensure the fulfillment of environmental regulations within companies in both offices and factories, perform efficiency assessment of machinery, and find human and wildlife risks, among others.https://news.rakwireless.com/connect-a-rak7204-to-helium-and-forward-its-data-to-ubidots/

The installation environment of outdoor LoRaWAN gateways can be seen in Figure 1.

In terms of protection, it often needs to be better than indoor gateways, such as lightning protection, waterproofing, and dustproofing.

Figure 1 Common installation environment of outdoor LoRaWAN gatewayThe outer shell of the outdoor LoRaWAN gateway RAK7249 supports 5 N-head antennas, and the function of each antenna is different.

In actual applications, it depends on the configuration required by the customer.

If 4G is required, it may not be necessary to install all of them.
