Description

The RAK7391 is a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (CM4) carrier board. It is a Mini-ITX with multiple slots for radio and WisBlock modules. The RAK7391 is the motherboard in the WisGate Connect.

The RAK7391 is a great board to build your own solution on top of it, being it a gateway, and edge device or a general purpose computer!

The board has several interfaces to meet the needs of different developers: HDMI, 1GB Ethernet (with optional PoE support), 2.5GB Ethernet, USB2 & USB3, mPCIe, CSI, DSI, M.2, WisBlock...

Of course, it can also be used as a multichannel/multi-band LoRaWAN gateway product supporting up to 4 separate modules (for instance: you can have a 16-channel sub GHz LoRaWAN gateways plus a 2.4 GHz LoRaWAN gateway in the same device). It has flexible power supply modes such as DC terminal, Phoenix terminal, and POE (optional). The RAK7391 provides a fan interface to dissipate heat for the CPU that you can control based on the CPU temperature. It can monitor the power supply. In the event of a power failure, the ultra-capacitors can provide power to the system, so that the system can send a notification or easily survive micro-cuts in the power supply.

The RAK7391 can also be used as an Industrial gateway leveraging existing WisBlock modules (ModBUS, 4-20mA, 0-5V, general IO), and Edge Gateway, a Standalone gateway for a private LoRaWAN deployment and the development platform of your next product.

Software

We have prepared a custom Linux distribution for the WisGate Connect called RAKPiOS. The RAKPiOS is a fork of the Raspberry Pi OS with all the required drivers to use the device, some security changes, helper scripts and Docker included by default.

With the included rakpios-cli you can easily configure the network and deploy several IoT services from a curated list of docker containers available from the device.
