RAKwireless WisBlock LoRa Module RAK11310 /IN865

The module is programmed using the RAKwireless Unified Interface V3 (RUI3). You can develop custom firmware using the Arduino IDE with the RUI3 board support package or via PlatformIO. It also supports AT command mode for configuration via a serial terminal. The STM32WLE5CC chip allows for low-level development using STM32CubeIDE and the corresponding LoRaWAN® stack, providing flexibility from prototyping to production.

To build a sensor node, slot the RAK11310 LoRa module into the dedicated radio slot on a WisBlock Base board (like the RAK5005). Then, add a WisBlock Core processing board (e.g., RAK4631) if needed, though the RAK11310 has its own MCU. Finally, plug in any required WisBlock Sensor or IO modules (for temperature, humidity, etc.) into the remaining slots. Power the assembly via the baseboard's USB or battery connector. The modular design requires no soldering for basic functionality.

The IN865 frequency band refers to the LoRaWAN® spectrum allocation for India, operating from 865 MHz to 867 MHz. This module is specifically certified and optimized for use in India and other regions that have adopted this frequency plan. Using a region-specific module like the RAK11310 ensures compliance with local radio regulations and seamless connectivity to LoRaWAN network servers operating in that territory, avoiding interference and legal issues.
