Sensor Overview 

The wireless sensors designed and manufactured by Radio Bridge provide full sensor to cloud 
solutions for Internet of Things (IoT) applications.  The wireless ambient light sensor uses a 
light sensor to detect lighting levels in a room. When the lighting level increases beyond or 
drops below user defined thresholds, an alert is sent over the wireless network.  

 

Features include: 

 

Built-in radio that talks directly with LoRaWAN wireless networks 

 

Two types of tamper detection: enclosure tamper and wall mount tamper 

o

 

Enclosure tamper detects if the packaging of the sensor itself is opened or broken 
Available on the RBSx01, RBSx05, and RBSx06 sensors. 

o

 

Wall  mount  tamper  detects  if  the  sensor  has  been  removed  from  the  wall  or 
mounting point. Available on the RBSx01 and RBSx05 sensors. 

 

200,000+ transmissions on a single battery and a 5-10 year battery life depending on usage. 
See Battery section for more detail. 

 

Fully integrated internal antenna 

 

Over the air sensor configuration in the field 

 

Automatic low battery reporting and supervisory messages
