Repeater LoRa/LoRaWAN with access to the LoRaWAN netwotk Products ACW compatible with the...
Important observation The repeater is not limited to one repeating device. Several products can operate with the same repeater. The only limitation is the bandwidth (If two devices transmit their local frames at the same time, there will be a collision because all the equipment involved in the repetition configuration are operating with the same radio configuration).
Figure 2 : Configuration of the device to be repeated to activate the repeater compatibility with the LoRa/LoRaWAN repeater Apply the new configuration by clicking on « Apply to ACW ». The device is now compatible with the installed repeater. •...
Limitation • General limitations − Currently, the repeater does not allow the downlinks to be transferred to the equipment (s) to be repeated − If a device to be repeated is within “radio range” of several repeaters, each repeater will transfer the local frame (it will therefore be sent in duplicate).
