Need a single-channel gateway for development? See the ThinkNode G3. Want to add LoRa to a Raspberry Pi? See the LR1302 HAT, or the LR1302 LoRaWAN Gateway Module on its own.
The ThinkNode G1 Indoor LoRaWAN Gateway is a powerful, high-performance 8-channel gateway designed for reliable and scalable IoT network deployments. Built with the Semtech SX1302 LoRa concentrator and dual SX1250 RF chips, it delivers exceptional data processing capability with multiple parallel demodulation paths, ensuring efficient and stable communication.
Engineered for indoor environments, the G1 supports multiple connectivity options, including Wi-Fi, Ethernet, Bluetooth, and 4G, providing flexible network backhaul for various deployment scenarios. It utilizes advanced LoRaWAN packet forwarder technology, ensuring full compatibility with leading network servers like The Things Network (TTN) and ChirpStack.
The G1 ships in two hardware variants. The 902–928 MHz hardware is pre-configured for US915 and can be reconfigured by the customer for AU915, AS923, or KR920. The 863–870 MHz hardware is pre-configured for EU868 and can be reconfigured by the customer for IN865 or RU864. CN470 is not supported. Wide-area coverage of 5-10 km makes the G1 a good fit for smart infrastructure, industrial monitoring, and environmental sensing.
Designed for ease of use, the ThinkNode G1 features a user-friendly web interface, built-in network server capability, and plug-and-play functionality-allowing rapid deployment and simplified management.
