## Restrictions

**For use in Australia**

- Operate only in bands and with settings that are permitted for your location and application. Check this product’s supported frequencies in the description/specs.
- If you intend to operate outside shared/licence‑exempt conditions (e.g. in other bands, at higher power, with high‑gain antennas, or extended duty cycles), you must have the appropriate authorisation.
 
**For use in other regions**

- Follow the spectrum rules for your country/region and select frequencies and settings accordingly.

A declaration of use will need to be submitted during checkout.

## Description

Do you need power? This breakout for the 915M30S module from EBYTE is a 1W (30dB) LoRa transceiver. LoRa is great for long range (miles), low power (in sleep), and low data rates (~500bps). This breakout board is designed to connect to any platform that has SPI and 6 available GPIO. Sparkfun include a robust edge mount RP-SMA connector to connect large LoRa (915MHz) antennas. In addition, the on-board U.FL connector can be used if you need to get outside a metal enclosure.

We've successfully broadcast 12 miles line-of-sight (thank you [foothills](https://www.google.com/search?q=boulder+foothills&tbm=isch)!) using this module but your results may vary.

Our example sketches make quick work of the initial setup for the [SX1276 LoRa transceiver](https://www.semtech.com/products/wireless-rf/lora-core/sx1276) from Semtech, and the RadioLib Arduino Library makes advanced configuration and [protocols](https://github.com/jgromes/RadioLib/wiki/Default-configuration#protocols) (AX.25, Hellschreiber, Morse, RTTY, and SSTV) a cinch too!

We do not plan to regularly produce SparkX products so get them while they’re hot!

 **Experimental Product:** [SparkX](https://www.sparkfun.com/sparkx) products are rapidly produced to bring you the most cutting edge technology as it becomes available. These products are tested but come with no guarantees. Live technical support is not available for SparkX products.
