Product description
Since E-Sun Electronics Limited launched the Panther X1 Hotspot, the product has been a big success and welcomed by most users for its exclusive advantages such as abundant storage, full-duplex LoRa mode, multi-hotspot management configuration, high-speed synchronization, and advanced customization. As E-Sun Electronics Limited focuses on building a series of high-quality products in the Internet of Things field in the future, the team has been committed to continuously advancing the research, development, and iteration of Panther X series products. Following the successful launch of Panther X1, we completed the research and development of PantherX2 Hotspot and launched it to the public.
Panther -X2 has a 4-core high-performance processor, ultra-low power consumption, and ultra-long-distance IoT hotspot gateway. In addition, as an information converter for the LoRa communication protocol, Panther X2 acts as a bridge between network servers and end nodes.
Panther- X2, featuring a signal coverage of around 10-20 km, runs at an ultra- low-power (5W) and can connect to over 2,000 LoRaWAN end nodes within itsrange. It is susceptible, safe, reliable, and easy to interact with and can be used for environmental monitoring, asset tracking, smart agriculture, and other long-range ultra-low-power IoT applications.
Panther- X2 is compatible with the Helium LongFi network and can be used asa hotspot to obtain Helium digital token, HNT. In addition, the device supportsblock synchronization and remote control. Users can use the official Heliumapplication to complete the Panther- X2 in one minute quickly.
Architecture
Panther- X2 sends and receives LoRa data, modulates/demodulates signals, processes LoRa data and higher-level protocol-related tasks, and eventually transmits data to the server via Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
Solution
LongFiTM Technology
Helium LongFi is a technical architecture that combines advanced wireless technology LoRaWAN and Helium blockchain. LongFi is optimized for the coverage and battery life of IoT devices.
Proof of Coverage (PoC)
The Panther – X2 Hotspot obtains the digital token HNT when the device is connected to the Helium main net and is used to verify the wireless coverage provided by the peer. Using a proof of coverage mechanism, Panther – X2 Hotspots can obtain more HNT when Panther – X2 Hotspots are within the coverage range of other Panther -X2 Hotspots.
The coverage depends on the use environment:
- Open area: 10 kilometers or more.
- Built-up areas: 1~10 kilometers.
A single hotspot obtains fewer HNT because it can only issue challenges through the Internet and not participate in the proof of coverage mechanism.
About LoRa
LoRa is an innovative radio frequency physical layer modulation technology that provides long-range wireless connectivity, excellent power supply efficiency, extremely high receiver sensitivity, full spread spectrum, and secure, encrypted transmission. It is operated on free industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) radio bands with 863-870 MHz frequency spectrum and its subsets reserved for Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and India, and 902-928 MHz for the Americas and Asia-Pacific countries/regions. The ISM band primarily used in China is 470-510MHz.
About LoRaWAN
LoRaWAN is a Media Access Control (MAC) layer protocol developed by the LoRa Alliance, serving as a supplement to the physical layer implementation of LoRa. It draws support from an established ecosystem of LoRa WAN compatible devices, which can be obtained from multiple suppliers and is accredited by the LoRa Alliance for Device Interoperability.
LoRaWAN defines the network’s communication protocol and system architecture,
while the LoRa physical layer enables the long-range
communication link. As a result, the protocol and network architecture have
the most influence in determining the battery lifetime of a node, the network
capacity, the quality of service, the security, and the variety of
applications served by the network.

FCC Warnning:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Caution: Any changes or modifications to this device not explicitly approved
by manufacturer could void your authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:
(1)This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your body.
