AKCP sensorProbe Wireless Tunnel Sensor Connector

Use an AKCP sensorProbe Wireless Tunnel (SP-WT) to monitor up to 4x AKCP intelligent sensors using LoRa wireless communications over long distances up to 3km (over 1.5miles). AKCP’s proprietary Wireless Tunnel protocol provides guaranteed message delivery without loss of data and with low power utilization to help extend battery life. Data is transmitted to the sensorProbe Wireless Tunnel Server (SP-WTS). Multiple units can be monitored centrally with AKCPro Server, which can run locally or as a Cloud-base software platform.

The sensorProbe+ Wireless Tunnel is equipped with Semtech’s LoRa based radio technology and the AKCP Wireless Tunnel communications protocol. Up to 4x wired intelligent sensors can be connected to a single SP-WT device. Up to 30x SP-WT devices can be connected to the sensorProbe+ Wireless Tunnel Server (SP-WTS), allowing up to 120 intelligent sensors to be monitored.

The sensorProbe Wireless Tunnel (SP-WT) is powered by either 3x AAA batteries, or a 5VDC USB input. It is recommended where possible to power the SP-WT via USB power supply but both can be used with the batteries providing a failover power source.
