The DLOS8 uses Semtech packet forwarder and is fully compatible with LoRaWAN protocol. It includes a SX1301 LoRaWAN concentrator, which provide 10 programmable parallel demodulation paths. It is pre configured to work seamlessly with the Telemetry2U servers, but is very easy to configure via the Web GUI interface. It also has a built in GPS receiver used for location and time synchronization. The 4G modem comes pre-loaded, but the required 4G SIM card is not supplied, users must provide their own SIM card at their own cost. Using the 4G can get around complicated installations by creating a separate network rather that integrating to the existing site WiFi and firewalls.
