MikroTik R11e-LR2

The MikroTik R11e-LR2 is a state-of-the-art Concentrator Gateway card specifically designed to enhance and expand your Internet of Things (IoT) projects by leveraging the advanced capabilities of 2.4 GHz LoRa® technology. This mini PCIe form factor card is ideal for integrating into any MikroTik product equipped with a mini PCIe slot and connected USB lines, providing a seamless and efficient solution for IoT connectivity.

The R11e-LR2 card operates at 2.4 GHz, offering LoRa® connectivity which is known for significantly higher bandwidth and faster data rates compared to traditional LoRa® frequencies. This increased efficiency results in less air time and reduced congestion, making it an optimal choice for environments with a high density of IoT sensors. With a maximum power consumption of only 2 watts, the R11e-LR2 is an energy-efficient solution that helps maintain low operating costs, particularly important for large-scale deployments or applications where power availability is limited.

It is also worth noting that the LoRa line of devices is ready to work within the well-known open source infrastructure - The Things Network - which provides free LoRaWAN coverage and offers a variety of applications for your needs. The Things Network helps you get started with the Internet in a single day. Easily upgrade to The Things Industries enterprise network. Based on devices in this family, you can build the most affordable LoRa solution available today without sacrificing quality or performance. “The Internet of Things" has never been so affordable.

Engineered to withstand harsh conditions, the R11e-LR2 is tested for operation in ambient temperatures ranging from -40°C to 70°C. This durability makes it suitable for deployment in a variety of environments, from indoor industrial sites to outdoor settings exposed to extreme weather conditions. In addition, this card meets rigorous international standards, holding CE, FCC, IC, and ROHS certifications. These certifications affirm its safety, reliability, and environmental compliance, making it a trustworthy component for any project.

Supporting four different RX channels and one TX channel, the R11e-LR2 provides ample capacity for receiving multiple signals simultaneously, which is critical for robust and reliable IoT communications. This multi-channel support ensures efficient handling of data packets, enhancing overall network performance. Furthermore, thanks to its use of Chirp Spread Spectrum (CSS) modulation technology, the R11e-LR2 does not interfere with existing 2.4 GHz WLAN signals. This feature is crucial for maintaining the integrity and reliability of both your WLAN and LoRa® networks, particularly in industrial environments where numerous wireless technologies must coexist without causing mutual interference.
