Description Elecrow ThinkNode M7 Meshtastic Wireless Communication Gateway is an indoor LoRa gateway built around the ESP32-S3 module and LR1110 LoRa chip. It is designed as a Meshtastic gateway for Meshtastic deployments that need stable indoor coverage, wired network access, and simple installation. The gateway integrates 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy/Bluetooth 5.0, LoRa wide-area communication, a 100Mbps Ethernet port, USB Type-C power/data access, and PoE power support. It supports US915MHz and EU868MHz LoRa bands in the official specification, making it suitable for regional Meshtastic gateway deployments. Only one of the Meshtastic or LoRaWAN feature sets can be used, so choose the matching firmware/version for your project. Features Meshtastic gateway design: hardware and software are adapted for Meshtastic communication and indoor LoRa coverage scenarios. ESP32-S3 processing: Xtensa 32-bit LX7 dual-core processor with up to 240MHz main frequency for gateway communication tasks. LR1110 LoRa radio: supports LoRa communication in US915MHz and EU868MHz bands according to the official specification. Multiple network interfaces: supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy/Bluetooth 5.0, LoRa, and 10/100Mbps Ethernet. PoE supported: Ethernet power supply is supported for cleaner indoor deployment; USB Type-C can also be used for 5V/1A power. External antennas: includes LoRa and WLAN/BT antennas to help improve wireless coverage. Easy installation: compact plastic enclosure with rear-mount, wall-mount, and desktop deployment options.
