The Sentrius™ RS1xx LoRa-Enabled Sensor from Laird is the ultimate in secure, scalable, robust LoRa solutions for end-to-end control of your private LoRaWAN network. Based on the Semtech SX1272 chipset, it offers a long range up to ten miles, perfect for highly scalable, flexible IoT networks. The Sentrius™RS1xx Sensor works with Laird’s Sentrius™RG1xx Series Gateways for simple out-ofthe-box integration and is compatible with third-party and LoRa network servers.

The Sentrius™ Sensor is designed for use with primary cell AA batteries, either lithium or alkaline 1.5V cells. Lithium batteries have more capacity but are costlier. Lithium batteries also have a lower temperature range of -40° C, as opposed to -20° C for alkaline. You must specify the type of battery being used because the algorithm that determines the percentage of remaining battery life must account for the battery type.
