1. Introduction of DSM-060 LoRa Module
DSM-060 LoRa gateway module is specially developed for low- power LPWAN applications, and can be applied to LoRa or LoRaWAN networks on CN470 / EU868 / AS923 / KR920 / IN865 / RU864 / US915 / AU915 frequency band.
This new-generation SX1302 module has a unique 64-bit ID and significantly reduces power consumption and simplifies heat dissipation design. Unlike previous generations of LoRa wireless module, SX1302 LoRa module embeds the capability to SF5 and SF6, which can better handle high-speed data. In addition, a new high-precision temperature sensor is added for real-time temperature monitoring and parameter calibration. Furthermore, it supports the LBT. This module has excellent performance in demodulation capability and power consumption. It is suitable for various Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications.
