Leverage LoRa and LoRaWAN® devices in your IIoT Solutions
Achieve long-range, low-power communication with the Notecard for LoRa devices. Communicating with your devices via LoRa radio is ideal for battery-powered and remote IIoT applications where cellular isn't an option.
Build with the Notecard for LoRa module for:
- A compact device, 30mm x 35mm SOM (system on module)
- Castellated edges provide an easy way to solder the Notecard directly onto a PCB for scalability
- Plug-and-play integration with The Things Network
- Access to our industry-leading security and cloud orchestration platform
Need to use more than just LoRa in your architecture?
We designed the Notecards around the idea of wireless harmonization making them completely compatible with each other, utilizing the same pinouts, with optional optimization differences, and the core Notecard API subset.
-
Simplified Development
With our plug-and-play JSON interface, you can stand up your application in hours, not weeks
-
Complete Control with Notehub
Notehub is our cloud orchestration layer that makes it easy to route data to the cloud, quickly provision devices at scale, and manage all your assets
-
Interchangeable Architecture
Our architecture gives you the freedom and flexibility to swap Notecards and connectivity methods with minimal additional configuration or lift
-
Industry Leading Security
Notecards feature robust security through encrypted “off the internet” communications and pre-loaded certificates for device authentication through our integrated secure element
-
LoRaWAN® Compatible
Notecard LoRa works across all layers of the LoRa network, including compatibility with LoRaWAN® and The Things Network
-
Power Efficient Hardware
Operate for years on a battery, and even extend battery life with sleep mode, which can wake up on sensor events
