Equipment: LoRaWAN Hotspots

A Helium hotspot is a small, low-power device that provides wireless connectivity to IoT devices using the Helium network. The hotspot connects to the Helium network using a Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) protocol and provides coverage for IoT devices within a radius of up to several miles.

Helium hotspots are typically designed for indoor or outdoor use and can be easily installed in a variety of locations, such as on a rooftop, a balcony, or a window sill. They use minimal power and can operate on battery or external power sources. Helium hotspots are designed to be low-maintenance and require little to no technical expertise to set up and operate.

The primary function of a Helium hotspot is to provide wireless connectivity to IoT devices, allowing them to transmit data securely and reliably using the Helium network. By doing so, Helium hotspots enable a wide range of IoT applications, such as asset tracking, environmental monitoring, and smart home automation.

Overall, a Helium hotspot is a critical component of the Helium network and is essential for providing reliable and secure wireless connectivity to IoT devices across a wide area.
