HP0D Full Hotspot for Helium

The HP0D is an outdoor LoRaWAN Gateway. It lets you bridge LoRa wireless network to an IP network via WiFi,Ethernet, optional 3G or 4G. The LoRa wireless allows users to send data and reach extremely long ranges at low data rates.

HP0D has passed Helium Full Hotspot Approval. It supports the (% style="color:#037691" %)** miner feature from Helium** (% style="color:black" %) and has a built-in ATECC608 encryption chip. It can be used as a Helium Full Hotspot for the project. It also supports Semtech packet forwarder and LoRaWAN Station connection, it is fully compatible with LoRaWAN protocol.HP0D supports two LoRaWAN servers at the same time, (% style="color:#037691" %)**users can use HP0D for helium mining and connects max 2 x LoRaWAN servers at the same time**.

HP0D has pre-configured standard LoRaWAN frequency bands to use for different countries. Users can also customize the frequency bands to use in their own LoRaWAN network.
