Expansion Radio Board
The Expansion Board allows to connect two communication modules at the same time in the Waspmote sensor platform. This means a lot of different combinations are possible using any of the wireless radios available for Waspmote: 802.15.4, ZigBee, DigiMesh, 868 MHz, 900 MHz, LoRa, WiFi, GPRS, NB-IoT / Cat-M, 4G, Sigfox, LoRaWAN, Bluetooth Pro, Bluetooth Low Energy and RFID/NFC. Besides, the following Industrial Protocols modules are available: RS-485/Modbus and CAN Bus.
Some of the possible combinations are:
LoRaWAN - GPRS
802.15.4 - Sigfox
868 MHz - RS-485
NB-IoT / Cat-M - WiFi
DigiMesh - 4G
NB-IoT / Cat-M - RFID/NFC
WiFi - 4G
CAN Bus - Bluetooth
etc.
NB-IoT / Cat-M and 4G modules do not need the Expansion Board to be connected to Waspmote. They can be plugged directly in the socket1.
Applications:
Multifrequency Sensor Networks (2.4 GHz – 868/900 MHz)
Bluetooth - ZigBee hybrid networks
NFC (RFID) applications with LoRaWAN
ZigBee - WiFi hybrid networks
