LORA RN2483 BEE

Microchip Technology RN2483 LoRa® Transceiver Module provides an easy to use, low-power solution for long-range wireless data transmission. The RN2483 is a fully-certified 433MHz / 868MHz module based on wireless LoRaWAN™ (Low Power Wide Area Network) technology.

The RN2483 Module utilizes a unique spread spectrum modulation within the sub-GHz band to enable long range, low power, and high network capacity.

The RN2483 module’s embedded LoRaWAN Class A protocol enables seamless connectivity to any LoRaWAN compliant network infrastructure, whether public or privately deployed. The module is specifically designed for ease of use, which shortens development time and speeds time to market.

LoRa technology is ideal for battery-operated sensors and low power applications like the Internet of Things (IoT), Machine to Machine (M2M), smart city, sensor networks, industrial automation, and more.
The RN2483 LoRa Transceiver Module is certified to the LoRaWAN 1.0 specification, ensuring that designers can quickly and easily integrate their end devices into any LoRaWAN network.
