Overview

WisTrio NB-IoT Tracker Pro (RAK5010) is a tracker with integrated LTE CAT M1 & NB1, GPS, BLE, and sensors. It is built on the Quectel BG96 LTE CAT M1 & NB1 module, which has an integrated GPS receiver. The MCU running the board is a Nordic nRF52840 controller.

As it has both GPS and BLE it can be used for outdoor and indoor scenarios, where location-based services need to be present.

The built-in sensors for RAK5010 are temperature and humidity sensor, motion sensor, pressure sensor, and light sensor, while the RAK5010-M model features just the temperature and humidity sensor and 3-axis motion sensor for a reduced price. The extension IOs allow adding more sensors in addition to the onboard ones.

This board is particularly suitable to be used as a quick testing and prototyping tool for applications requiring NB-IoT connectivity. Application development supports the GCC environment.
