BLG840F/X LTE Gateways and BN60 LTE Beacon
Draft Ver 0.51 May 2019
OpenSource with Market Ready Enclosure
BLG840F/X gateways support Bluetooth 5, Thread, or
Zigbee radio protocols. Both LTE-M and NB-IoT are
supported on the network side. They are
in market ready enclosure and pre-
certified. OpenSource codes are available
to expedite your firmware development.
BLG840F Gateway
BLG840F integrates a long-range module
BT840F with nRF9160 SIP module.
Range between 2 BT840F modules (not
in enclosure) is 2300 meters at 125 Kbps.
GPS antenna is integrated. An external
LTE antenna is included.
BLG840X Gateway
Using BT840X with +22.9 dBm TX, BLG832X can
penetrate multiple walls or be used in wide area mesh
applications. Range between 2 BT840X is more than 4500
meters at 125 Kbps.
BN60 LTE Beacon
With integrated GPS receiver and LTE connectivity, BN60
can be used for wide area tracking.
Miscellaneous
• Gateway size: 60x60x22 mm.
• Antenna length: 170mm.
• Includes AC adapter, USB cable, wall mount bracket.
DK-BLG840F Development Kit
