What is the RAK10701-Plus LoRaWAN Field Tester?

The RAK10701-Plus LoRaWAN Field Tester is a tool for evaluating the deployment and coverage of a LoRaWAN network. It provides details on gateway, uplink and downlink RSSI/SNR, packet loss rates, and GPS location. The touch-screen LCD makes it easy to use.

It works with the WisGateOS 2 field test extension and supports network coverage testing in both indoor and outdoor environments. It is compatible with AWS IoT, The Things Network, Chirpstack, and integrated LNS. The rechargeable battery and USB Type-C charging make it suitable for field use. This tool simplifies LoRaWAN network testing.

Why you need the RAK10701-Plus LoRaWAN Field Tester

Are you deploying a LoRaWAN network? The RAK10701-Plus helps you verify coverage, identify weak points, and optimize signal performance directly on-site. With real-time signal data, integrated GPS, and no external applications required, it's the smart tool every installer or network engineer should have in their toolbox.

Why it's useful:

• Real-time Signal Information - Displays RSSI, SNR, and packet loss during testing

• Quick Network Health Check - Assesses coverage and performance on-site

• Standalone, No Phone Needed - Operates entirely on its own with a touch screen

• Durable, Compact Design - Built for robust outdoor and indoor environments

• Plug-and-Play Compatibility - Supports WisGateOS2 LNS, TTN/TTI, Chirpstack, and AWS IoT Core integrated for LoRaWAN

Key Benefits of the RAK10701-Plus LoRaWAN Field Tester

Quickly test LoRaWAN signal strength and packet loss on-site with accurate, real-time results.

• Real-time Performance Data: See RSSI, SNR, and packet loss in real-time

• All-in-one, No App Needed: Usable independently with touch screen commands

• Easy Test Location Tagging: Tag each point directly on the device

Use Case #1

A technician needs to install a new LoRaWAN gateway in a rural area. With RAK10701-Plus, they can test coverage on-site, tag key locations, and optimize placement, all without internet access.

Use Case #2

An engineer is verifying network strength in a large warehouse. They walk the site, using the tester's real-time signal feedback and location tagging to map weak spots and improve node placement.
