IoT micro:bit Long Range Node – 915 MHz/868MHz

Description

Long Range is the smart, wireless transmission technology that is enabling the future of IoT (Internet of Things).

Our IoT micro:bit Long Range Node allows you to create an inexpensive Long Range node, compatible with The Things Network, in conjunction with a BBC micro:bit or other single board computers. This board allows quicker prototyping as it has the Long Range stack on the chip. Add sensors, buttons and more to complete your Long Range network!

The IoT micro:bit Long Range Node uses the RAKWireless RAK811 Long Range node module which is based on Semtech SX1276 Long Range technology.

The board can be configured to use either of the two different frequencies listed below:

– 868 MHz
– 915 MHz
– Need more information about frequencies in your region? Click here. 

Compatible with

– BBC micro:bit

Pair the micro:bit Long Range Node with our Long Range Gateway HAT

We also have a Long Range Gateway HAT designed for the Raspberry Pi that works with the micro:bit Long Range Nodes plus any other node we sell.
