2AF6B-RAK2560CSensor Hub

Documentation Center RAK2560C WisNode Sensor Hub atasheet Overview Description The RAK2560C WisNode Sensor Hub is a modular sensor ecosystem consisting of the main body and multiple pre-configured sensor probes. With pluggable, interchangeable probes, and the option to add third-party sensors to the mixture, the Sensor Hub is a suitable and versatile solution platform for various IoT applications where environmental monitoring is needed. The Sensor Hub consists of a robust waterproof enclosure with two (2) sensor probe ports to connect the sensors or an external power source like a solar panel. The device can work in full battery mode or with an external power supply depending on the deployment location. The Sensor Hub and its sensor probes are easily configured via the WisToolBox app, available for mobile and desktop.
