Board/B BLE
Board/B BLE is a rugged industrial Bluetooth Low Energy proximity-beacon with external DC voltage supply. It simultaneously supports multiple technologies: iBeacon, Eddystone (full support, with GATT and EID), Quuppa (emulation mode).
Board/B BLE is designed to operate in extreme operating conditions (rugged weatherproof IP67/NEMA6 enclosure, wide temperature range) and is conceived for use in light and heavy industry.
It is powered by external DC voltage up to 30V, compatible with main industrial automation systems.
Thanks to internal GPIOs, it is possible to provided it with custom firmware for sensors/actuators management.
