RAK7258 1 General Description 1.1 Product Description RAK7258 is an indoor LoRa gateway device. Gateway uplink connects the LoRa cloud platform by a standard Ethernet cable, making LoRaWAN wireless to internet forwarding a breeze. RAK7258 supports 2.4G WiFi, WiFi clients can access this gateway and setup the gateway by wireless. It supports optional NB-IoT /Cat M module, in the absence of a wired network, it can readily use the celullar’s network uplink data to the LoRa server when there is no local Ethernet. Our built-in software is based on the OpenWRT development for LoRaWAN transmission / forwarding. It is designed for all kinds of network environment, parameter configuration and firewall functions. Configurations and management of gateway devices are made easy for users through the web configuration management system. RAK7258 is built-in heat sink to dissipate the heat from the LoRa concentrator which can withstand hot and cold environments. It can be installed on a wall and has a Power- over-Ethernet (POE) supply mode, making it convenient for site construction and installation. 1.2 Product Features • LoRa supports 8RX 1TX channels • Supports 2.4G WiFi • 100Mbase-T Ethernet with POE • Muiti uplink backup with Ethernet, WiFi • OpenWRT software supports LoRaWAN gateway and network configuration • Heat sink to dissipate heat • Can integrate with both private and public(TTN) Network Servers • Supports TF card for storage • Indoor operation temperature • Supports optional for NB-IoT /Cat M cellular network Figure 1 | Network Architechture RAK7258 User Manual V1.3 4
