Questions and Answers

  • Hi, if we use the RAK4260 LoRa module and want to get the best distance for our link - what would we use as the gateway or base station? Is this RAK4260 Evaluation Board the best option or is there a better option.

    I think you will do well with the RAK4260. It has a very good range for a LoRa Node, however, the main factor is the antenna you are going to be using with both the Node and Gateway. I would recommend getting a decent antenna for the node, for example, this one: https://store.rakwireless.com/products/lora-antenna

    You will need this connector for it: https://store.rakwireless.com/products/ipex-to-sma-connector You could get a bigger one however it is not a good idea for a node as you want it to be small.

    As far as the Gateway goes if you want the best range you can get either the Commercial outdoor Gateway: https://store.rakwireless.com/products/rak7249-diy-outdoor-gateway?variant=26611827638372 Also you should get the bigger antenna: https://store.rakwireless.com/products/fiber-glass-antenna?variant=27103006490724

    This way you will have the gateway with the 5.8dBi, you will have a 3dBi spare that you have a cable to attach to the node if you want and also have the gluestick if you need a more compact one, also attached with a cable.

    This should pretty much give youth the best options.

  • What is the use of JLink? Can't it be directly programmed using USB?

    JLink is used to flash the firmware and debug. Micro USB is used to configure, monitor, etc.

  • Hello, I read de Quick Start Guide, but I don't understand if I need a j-link programmer to program de evaluation board?

    Yes, you need the J-link.
