i-gotU GW1 Wireless Data Collector Gateway (Only work with i-gotU G2S and G6S, extend distance to 2km)

Introducing the i-gotU GW1 Wireless Data Collector Gateway. It is a powerful tool designed to extend the wireless transmission distance of the G2S and G6S devices up to 2 kilometers. With its advanced features and functionality, researchers and professionals can gather data effortlessly, even from remote locations.

Key Features:

Wireless Data Collection:

The GW1 serves as a dedicated data-collection station, capable of wirelessly fetching data from G2S and G6S devices located up to 2km away. This enables researchers to conveniently collect data without the need for physical access to the devices.

Long Range Capability:

Utilizing an omnidirectional radiation pattern with a vertical antenna, the GW1 ensures an extended transmission range. In conjunction with the G2S and G6S devices, it allows researchers to monitor and track tagged birds, animals, and assets within a vast area.

Lightweight and Portable:

Weighing less than 1 kg, the GW1 is designed to be highly portable and convenient for researchers on the move. Its lightweight construction ensures ease of transportation, enabling researchers to deploy the device effortlessly in various locations.

Data Retrieval Made Easy:

For distance up to 2km, researchers can utilize the GW1 as their mobile gateway. By moving the GW1 gateway around, they can discover G2S/G6S tagged birds, animals, or assets within the extended range and download data from the specific tags of interest. This feature eliminates the need to recapture animals to access data, providing a significant relief for researchers.

Seamless Connectivity:

The GW1 acts as a gateway, allowing researchers to connect with G2S and G6S devices within a 2km range. By connecting a mobile phone to the GW1, researchers can instruct it to collect GPS data from devices of interest and receive real-time updates. The GW1 serves as an extender for mobile phones, bridging the communication gap and enabling efficient data retrieval.

Compatibility with G2S and G6S:

The GW1 is compatible with both G2S and G6S devices, whether they are configured in standard mode or long-range mode. In long-range mode, the theoretical connection range can be extended up to 2km (line of sight). To optimize performance, it is recommended to mount the GW1 on a commanding height of 4 meters, ensuring a clear view of the monitored objects.
