Description
The Sensor Hub movement sensing solution includes the popular RAK1904 3-axis Acceleration Sensor inside the Sensor Probe. Its low power consumption and accurate data-gathering abilities allow you to catch even the slightest movements of your equipment.
The Splitter cable can connect several Sensor Probes and Probe IOs to a single Sensor Hub port. The distance between the Sensor Hub and Sensor Probe/Probe IO can be extended via the Extension cable.
The product can be used in any use case where movement is important, especially in industrial settings (machine vibration, tilt sensing) where the equipment’s movement may signal problems and/or operational status of the machines. Smart cities are also a stage for such measurements (boom gate monitoring, solar panel tilt, door open/close rate, and more). This Sensor Probe can be used as a theft protection/positioning signalization system as well.
Note: The Sensor Hub can be powered with 2 to 4 ER18505 non-rechargeable batteries. They are NOT INCLUDED. You need to supply them separately. Find more on where you can find compatible batteries here.
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.
