Hardware components

All components necessary to build LoRaBridge bridge and gateway units are listed below. Please note: the components listed here are the ones used to build the first proof-of-concept LoRaBridge implementation with verified functionality. Some components such as different Raspberry PI models, other Zigbee coordinator sticks or alternative LoRa modems (supporting by LMIC node) might work out-of-the-box. Other components like external LoRaWAN gateways may require adjustments to the LoRaBridge software.
