Sensor Probe

Description

The Sensor Probe is an accessory for the Sensor Hub solution platform. It supports up to 2 WisBlock sensors in various combinations to provide the needed data.

With the pre-selected sensor combinations, you can measure the most popular environmental parameters to build your solution quickly and easily.

The Sensor Probes are weatherproof with an IP67 rating and can be used indoors or outdoors.

Several Sensor Probes can be connected to a single Sensor Hub port using the Splitter cable. The distance between the Sensor Hub and Sensor Probe can be extended via the Extension cable.

NOTE: The Sensor Probe could not be used as a standalone product. You need the RAK2560 Sensor Hub in order to use this probe.

Note: The Sensor Hub has two variants based on the communication type - LoRaWAN only and LoRaWAN+NB IoT. SensorHub's NB-IoT module supports two types of LTE (Long-Term Evolution) categories, namely CAT M1 and CAT NB2. CAT M1 offers higher data rates and lower latency, while CAT NB2 provides ultra-low power consumption and greater coverage, making it an ideal choice for devices that operate on batteries and require long-term connectivity.

Features

• Auto-identification of the sensor type
• One-wire protocol
• Waterproof (IP67-rated for the probe body)
• Supports up to 2 preselected WisBlock sensor modules per Sensor Probe
