Q4: Can RS485 sensor be connected to UG6X directly?
Answer: No, UG6X doesn't have RS485 port. You can use Milesight LoRaWAN controller (UC1152 or UC50x Series ) to convert serial-based device data into LoRaWAN data and send them to gateway.
Q5: What is the different between UG87 and UG67?
Answer:
- CPU and RAM: UG87 uses 800 MHz CPU with DDR3 RAM, UG67 uses 1.5G Hz quad-core CPU with DDR4 RAM, which has a better performance;
- LoRa chips: UG87 uses SX1301 chip, and UG67 uses SX1302 chip;
- Antenna: All antennas in UG87 are external anteannas, while cellular/Wi-Fi/GPS antennas are internal antennas in UG67, LoRa antennas are internal or external optional;
- UG67 supports more features like gateway fleet, Node-RED, noise-anaylzer.
Since UG87 is end of life, it’s recommended to select UG67 as your outdoor application option.
Q6: Is the gateways UG65/67 support TCP/IP?
Answer: Yes, UG6x supports TCP/IP.
Q7: Why UG65 shows 3 GB eMMC on the web GUI whereas it is 8 GB on datasheet?
