The Sentrius RG191-M2 card enables OEMs to integrate a high-performance, certified LoRaWAN gateway interface to any Linux-based platform. Lairds optimum hardware solution expands upon Sentrius drivers and reference design for improved RF performance. Comprehensive integration and design services for a custom gateway are also available via Lairds dedicated Engineering Services team and qualified LoRa antenna solutions are available from Laird. 2 OVERVIEW The module is designed around the Sentrius SX1301 digital baseband chip with an integrated LoRa concentrator IP, which is designed to perform high performance gateway function in the ISM band. The RF frontend consists of two of SX1257, high performance digital I and Q modulator/demodulator transceiver chips. The RF front-end is terminated with standard U.FL connector. The board form factor and connector pinout are designed to conform to M2.COM specifications. The card requires a single 5-volt supply and it generates its power supply requirements on-board. Standard SPI communication, reset, and power supply to the board are provided through a 75-position host interface connector. 3 SPECIFICATION SUMMARY Category Feature Specification General Radio Connectors Semtech Radios SX1301 and SX1257 (x2) Reference Design Based on Semtech Rev 1.0 - SX1301 AP1 Connector Type M2.COM E Key - http://www.m2com-standard.org/en-us External Antenna U.FL connector TX (max) 440 mA Power Consumption RX (all channels) 340 mA Voltage Input Input Idle 40 mA 5V (+/- 10%) Frequency Range RG191-M2: 902 to 928 MHz RF Characteristics RX Sensitivity Up to -140 dBm Max RF Output Power Up to +27 dBm Software Host Interface Driver Support SPI https://github.com/Lora-net/lora_gateway

The RG191-M2 holds full modular approvals and has been certified for integration to products only by OEM integrators under the following conditions:
1. The antenna(s) must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20 cm is always maintained between the radiator (antenna) and all persons. 2. The transmitter module must not be operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter, except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures. If the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). IMPORTANT NOTE: If these conditions cannot be met (for certain configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC and Industry Canada authorizations are no longer considered valid and the FCC ID and IC Certification Number cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC and Industry Canada authorization. Power Exposure Information Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Radiation Exposure Statement:
To comply with FCC RF exposure limits for general population/uncontrolled exposure, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. OEM Responsibilities WARNING: The OEM must ensure that FCC and Industry Canada labelling requirements are met. This includes a clearly visible label on the outside of the OEM enclosure specifying the appropriate Laird FCC identifier for this product. Contains FCC ID: SQG-1001 Contains IC: 3147A-1001 The OEM of the RG191-M2 module must only use the approved antenna(s) listed above (TBD), which have been certified with this module. The OEM integrator must not provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module or change RF related parameters in the user manual of the end-product. The user manual for the end-product must also include the following information in a prominent location:
To comply with FCC and Industry Canada RF exposure limits for general population/uncontrolled exposure, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter, except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.

The enclosed device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation Label and text information should be in a size of type large enough to be readily legible, consistent with the dimensions of the equipment and the label. However, the type size for the text is not required to be larger than eight point. CAUTION:
The OEM should have their device which incorporates the RG191-M2 tested by a qualified test house to verify compliance with FCC Part 15 Subpart B limits for unintentional radiators. WARNING:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Laird could void the users authority to operate the equipment. FCC Interference Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in an installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. FCC Warning:
THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS: (1) THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE, AND (2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED OPERATION. Industry Canada (IC) Warning:
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. French equivalent is:
Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicable aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
(2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. Embedded Wireless Solutions Support Center:
