# SX1262 LoRa Node Module for Raspberry Pi Pico, LoRaWAN

**Type:** Product page · **SKU:** WS-21667 · **Brand:** [Waveshare](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/waveshare-in-australia)
**Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/sx1262-lora-node-module-for-raspberry-pi-pico-lorawan.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/sx1262-lora-node-module-for-raspberry-pi-pico-lorawan.html.md))

This is a SX1262 LoRa Node Module For Raspberry Pi Pico with LoRaWAN Support

> ⚠ We strongly advise against using this module with a Pico W (at least without separation), as the WiFi interferes with LoRa reception. See the product description for more info.

## Pricing

- **Price:** $24.70 (inc GST) — $22.45 AUD, exc GST
- **Quantity discounts:** 10+ $21.55 (exc GST) · 25+ $20.88 (exc GST)

## Availability & dispatch

- In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney).
- We can dispatch 15 today, and up to 300 more in 12–19 days.

## 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.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=WS-21667:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/WS-21667:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

The  **Pico-LoRa-SX1262-XXXM**  is LoRa node expansion module designed for Raspberry Pi Pico based on SX1262 with better performance than the SX127X series. The LoRa modulation technology solves the balancing problem between transmission distance, interference immunity, and power consumption that traditional solutions aren't able to deal with.

It supports LoRaWAN protocol, which allows it to connect the TTN, ChirpStack servers through a LoRa gateway to use LoRa Cloud service fast and easily.

The included 600mAh LiPo battery connects via a Molex PicoBlade 1.25mm header, you can find a [compatible cable here if required](https://core-electronics.com.au/molex-pico-blade-2-pin-cable-200mm.html).

We don't recommend using this with a Pico W without proper separation, for more info see [this thread on our forum](https://forum.core-electronics.com.au/t/pico-lora-sx1262-pico-w-interference/18492).
