The MCCI Catena® 4802 RS-485/Sensor Node for LoRaWAN® technology networks is a complete open-source single-board IoT device that can monitor and control remote Modbus, M-Bus and other industrial devices, while also monitoring temperature and humidity with an integrated Sensirion SHT31 sensor. It also incorporates a QWICC connector for easy connection of external I2C devices. Based on the Murata CMWX1ZZABZ-078, the Catena 4802 is a great platform for RS-485/Modbus based LoRaWAN investigation and deployment. It works well with The Things Network, or any LoRaWAN 1.0 or 1.1 network in the 865 to 923 MHz range. As a Modbus controller, the Catena 4802 can control a large number of Modbus devices and communicate results via the LoRaWAN network, limited only by system memory and polling rate. As a Modbus device, the Catena 4802 can bridge an existing Modbus controller to the LoRaWAN network. Pricing and Availability The Catena 4802 is available now. MCCI offers several variants.
