The ThinkNode M7 is a high-performance gateway built on the ESP32-S3 module and LR1110 LoRa chip, adapted specifically for the LoRa protocol. Its Xtensa 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor runs at up to 240MHz, giving it plenty of headroom for communication and data processing. It also integrates 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0, and LoRa wide-area communication, supporting US 915MHz and EU 868MHz bands for different regions.

The gateway has a compact design with a mounting base. Interfaces include a USB power/data port and a 100Mbps Ethernet port, and it supports PoE power. An external adhesive antenna extends signal coverage.

The hardware and software are built around the Meshtastic protocol, with gateway functionality pre-installed, so it's ready to deploy as soon as it's powered on. It's a solid fit for indoor wireless deployments that need strong processing, wide signal coverage, and easy network access.

Note: This is the Meshtastic version of the ThinkNode M7. A separate LoRaWAN version is also available, but the two firmware modes aren't interchangeable on one unit, so pick the version that matches your network.

Why Choose ThinkNode M7?

The ThinkNode M7 pairs LoRa, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth with wired Ethernet and PoE, so it fits into an existing network as easily as a standalone LoRa gateway. Meshtastic gateway firmware comes pre-installed, so there's no setup step between unboxing and deployment. It fits smart buildings, event coverage, emergency response, and any indoor site with LoRa blind spots.
