New Product: LoRa1120 Multi-Band Communication Module – Low-Cost Indoor and Outdoor Global Positioning Module

Apr . 2025

By sdga:

LoRa1120 adopts Semtech's LR1120 chip, an ultra-low-power module designed specifically for global geolocation applications. It supports multi-band LoRa and long-range frequency hopping spread spectrum (LR-FHSS) communication, operating in the sub-GHz and 2.4GHz industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) bands, as well as the S-band authorized for satellite communication. The module integrates a cloud-native multi-constellation Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) scanner and a passive WiFi MAC address scanner, both of which are serviced through Semtech’s LoRaCloud™. The LR1120 complies with the physical layer requirements of the LoRaWAN standard specification released by the LoRa Alliance while maintaining configurability to meet various application and proprietary protocol needs.

Unlike the LoRa1121, the standout feature of the LoRa1120 is its integration of a cloud-native multi-constellation Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) scanner and a passive Wi-Fi MAC address scanner. Both services are supported through Semtech’s LoRaCloud™, enabling low-cost, low-power global indoor and outdoor positioning. International users can utilize Semtech’s LoRaCloud, while Chinese users can opt for the Tencent Cloud IoT Development Platform.
