MikroTik KNOT LR8 Kit RB924iR-2nD-BT5&BG77&R11e-LR8 | Advanced IoT & LTE Connectivity Solution

MikroTik KNOT LR8 Kit (RB924iR-2nD-BT5&BG77&R11e-LR8) is a comprehensive solution for building IoT networks. It includes a MikroTik IoT gateway with Bluetooth 5, LoRaWAN, and LTE Cat-M1/ NB-IoT support, designed to enable long-range connectivity for IoT applications in challenging environments.We all know the struggle of managing so many devices with different interfaces and communication protocols.. You keep adding new solutions to your setup to keep up, but the older devices are still too good to let them go. How do you integrate all of them in a single system that will serve you right? Easy – you “tie” them together by using the KNOT!It doesn’t matter whether you have devices that are no longer in production, devices that came out this year, or even some custom solutions by your technician – the KNOT can handle them all!KNOT LR8 kit is an out-of-the-box IoT Gateway solution for LoRa® technology. It uses Narrow Band and CAT-M technology. Because of the low cost, low bandwidth cellular connection, it is supported by countless mobile operators around the globe. This kit contains a pre-installed UDP packet forwarder to any public or private LoRa® servers. With the support of 8 different channels, Listen Before Talk (LBT) and spectral scan features this product will astound you with its enticing price point.It could be used as a backup connection for the Ethernet or as a management channel for your network. NB/CAT-M monthly plan is much cheaper than LTE. Why spend extra money on bandwidth you don’t need? For example, you can manage a KNOT-powered vending machine with temperature and moisture sensors with only a few megabytes per day!KNOT features so many protocol support and connectivity options: 2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth, LoRa®, 2x 100 Mbps Ethernet ports with PoE-in and PoE-out, Micro-USB. Maximum convenience at the lowest cost!With the Bluetooth interface, you can use the KNOT for asset tracking and telemetry based on Bluetooth advertisement packets. KNOT supports any BLE tag that sends advertisement data. iBeacon, Eddystone or any other format. It has powerful filters for forwarding only relevant packets and ignoring others.This kit can even help you in the most unusual situations. Remember the part about onboard GPIOs? Those pins can be used to read all kinds of analog sensors, interact with a single-board computer or other custom electronics – hobbyist kits, D.I.Y. robotics… It’s like getting the whole Swiss Army instead of a Swiss Army knife!KNOT is a great tool for most outdoor cabinet IoT applications as well. It comes with a DIN rail mount that allows easy integration with all kinds of setups: from agriculture and asset tracking to cold chain monitoring, industrial manufacturing, and so on.Bring flexible low-cost connectivity to the most remote or tricky areas with the MikroTik KNOT!Mikrotik KNOT LR8 kit  VideoIncluded parts24V 1.2A power adapterK-47 wall mount setDIN rail mount setUSB OTG cableWireless specifications2.4 GHzTransmit (dBm)Receive Sensitivity1MBit/s22-9611MBit/s22-896MBit/s20-9354MBit/s18-74MCS020-93MCS716-71 Ethernet test resultsRB924iR-2nD-BT5&BG77&R11e-LR8QCA9531 100M two port testModeConfiguration1518 byte512 byte64 bytekppsMbpskppsMbpskppsMbpsBridgingnone (fast path)16.3197.947.0192.5297.6152.4Bridging25 bridge filter rules16.3197.947.0192.580.441.2Routingnone (fast path)16.3197.947.0192.5233.1119.3Routing25 simple queues16.3197.947.0192.5131.467.3Routing25 ip filter rules16.3197.947.0192.549.125.1All tests are done with Xena Networks specialized test equipment (XenaBay),and done according to RFC2544 (Xena2544).Max throughput is determined with 30 second attempts with 0,1% packet loss tolerance in 64, 512, 1518 byte packet sizes.Test results show device maximum performance, and are reached using mentioned hardware and software configuration, different configurations most likely will result in lower results.The device has an operating system preinstalled and licensed. No separate purchase is necessary and the product is ready to use. The device includes free software updates for the life of the product or a minimum of 5 years starting from date of purchase.
