RM1xx Series A LoRa + Bluetooth Smart v4.0 Integrated Solution for LPWAN EIoT Applications SMART WIRELESS COVERAGE FOR MILES AND MILES Now with BLE Central OR Peripheral mode Designed for the EIoT Innovative combination The RM1xx series of modules offer a powerful, of BT v4.0 and LoRa makes the RM1xx the convenient solution for long-range Enterprise IoT bridge between Bluetooth Smart devices and a (EIoT) deployments. Laird innovatively combines network that intelligently uses their data. Bluetooth v4.0 with LoRaWAN, the emerging Ultra-low power usage schemes Allows years of standard in Low Power Wide Area Networks use on a single battery. (LPWAN) into one module. RM1xx modules Lairds unique smartBASIC language Makes it aggregate and transmit data from Bluetooth Smart extremely easy to create event-driven, hostless (BLE) devices and sensors over LoRa to gateways applications. No toolchain required. as far as 15 km (~10 miles) away. This bridges the Upgradable firmware Prepare for the future personal area network to the wide area network in with access to feature and security updates. a unique way. The RM1xx is LoRa Alliance and Compliant with FCC, CE regulations Available Bluetooth SIG certified and fully interoperable with as the RM186 (CE) or RM191 (FCC). any LoRaWAN-adherent gateway. Features at a Glance AGGREGATE AND UTILIZE EIoT DATA BLE + LoRa enables automated, intelligent monitoring and control of BLE devices, creating scenarios that were previously impossible. BRIDGE TO LPWAN YOUR WAY Combination of physical and wireless interfaces including: Bluetooth v4.0 (BLE Central or Peripheral), physical UART, Actual Size (25.4mm x 25.4mm) SPI, I2C, GPIO, or ADC. COMPREHENSIVE, MULTI-LAYER ENTERPRISE SECURITY Robust security on either public or private LoRa networks, with three layers of keys and AES-128 encryption. SPEED TO MARKET WITH smartBASIC Application Areas Easily write event-driven apps for any use case and run in the module. No toolchain required. Smart Metering and Remote Sensing BASED ON AWARD-WINNING BL6x0 SERIES Includes Whisper Mode for proximity pairing, low power Industrial Automation/Monitoring BLE operation, and onboard microcontroller for hostless and Control operation. PERSONAL SUPPORT FROM DESIGN TO MANUFACTURE Agricultural and Rural Support works onsite with Laird engineering to speed your IoT / M2M Applications design to market.
