The Murata Type 2GT New Generation LoRa® Connectivity Module is a cutting-edge solution for wireless communication that leverages LoRa® technology for long-range, low-power data transmission. Designed for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, this module enables devices to communicate over extended distances while minimizing power consumption, making it ideal for battery-operated devices. LoRa® (Long Range) technology is known for its ability to transmit small amounts of data over long distances, often in challenging environments where other wireless technologies may struggle, such as urban or rural areas with obstructions.
The Murata Type 2GT integrates Semtech’s LoRa® transceiver and STMicroelectronics’ microcontroller into a single, compact module. This high level of integration simplifies the design process for developers, as they do not need to source and integrate multiple components separately. The module is designed for ease of use, featuring a small footprint that allows it to fit into space-constrained applications, while also offering robust performance in terms of range, data rates, and energy efficiency.
The Type 2GT is highly versatile and suited for a wide range of IoT applications, such as smart cities, agriculture, industrial automation, asset tracking, and environmental monitoring. Its low-power design makes it especially suitable for use cases where devices need to operate on small batteries for long periods without frequent recharging or maintenance. The module’s ability to transmit data over kilometers without relying on traditional cellular infrastructure adds to its appeal, particularly in areas where cellular coverage is limited or expensive.
