Shelly Lora Addon

The Shelly LoRa Add-on is an expansion module that provides long-range LoRa connectivity to compatible Shelly smart relays (Gen3 and Gen4 devices), allowing for communication over distances of up to 5 km in open spaces. It is designed for use in environments where traditional wireless technologies are insufficient, such as large facilities, remote areas, or obstructed spaces.

Key Features:

• Long-Range Communication: Uses LoRa radio technology to enable communication over distances up to 5 km with an external antenna, ideal for large areas where standard Wi-Fi is insufficient, such as farms or industrial facilities.
• Broad Compatibility: Designed to seamlessly integrate with specific Shelly Gen3 and Gen4 devices, including the Shelly 1, Shelly 1PM, Shelly 2PM, Shelly EM, and others.
• Reliable Performance: Built to operate dependably in challenging or obstructed environments (e.g., through concrete or metal walls) by leveraging the signal penetration capabilities of LoRa technology.
• Low Power Consumption: The add-on draws very little power (less than 150 mW) directly from the host Shelly device, ensuring efficient operation.
• Custom Scripting Support: Allows users to implement custom mJS scripts, enabling flexible functionality and tailored automation scenarios for specific use cases like smart street lighting or remote irrigation.
• Flexible Network Topologies: Supports various communication configurations, including one-to-one, one-to-many, and many-to-one, providing versatile network design options.
• Easy Physical Integration: The module attaches directly to the proprietary serial interface on the compatible Shelly host device for a quick and simple installation process.
• Regional Frequency Bands: Supports major frequency bands, including EU868, US915, and AU915-928, to comply with regional regulations (some may require firmware updates).
• Requires at least two units: To establish a connection, a user needs at least two Shelly devices equipped with the LoRa Add-on, with one acting as a transmitter and the other as a receiver.
