Software
We have prepared a custom Linux distribution for the WisGate Connect called RAKPiOS. The RAKPiOS is a fork of the Raspberry Pi OS with all the required drivers to use the device, some security changes, helper scripts and Docker included by default.
With the included rakpios-cli you can easily configure the network and deploy several IoT services from a curated list of docker containers available from the device.
Included in the Package:
- RAK7391 CM4 carrier board
- Set of jumpers
- Phoenix male connector
- 12V2A power supply
- Set of standoffs and screws to secure the board
- Set of screws for the mPCIe, M.2 and WisBlock slots
- Aluminum enclosure with OLED screen
- Set of screws for the enclosure
- Set of rubber feet
- Set of SMA caps
