MikroTik R11e-LR9 is a LoRa concentrator gateway card in miniPCIe form factor, designed to add LoRaWAN connectivity at 902–928 MHz to any MikroTik device with an mPCIe slot and connected USB lines. It is deployed by IoT integrators and developers building LoRaWAN gateways for regions using the 915 MHz band — the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Brazil, and many countries in Asia — on existing RouterBOARD platforms without purchasing a dedicated LoRa gateway. The 902–928 MHz version complements the MikroTik lineup alongside the R11e-LR8G module for Europe (868 MHz).
The module is based on the Semtech SX1301 chipset and supports 8 simultaneous channels, Listen Before Talk (LBT), and spectral scan features — essential capabilities for professional LoRaWAN gateways compatible with The Things Network and The Things Industries. Compatibility with any MikroTik device equipped with a miniPCIe slot with connected USB lines — LtAP, wAP, RBM33G, and others — enables building custom LoRaWAN gateways on existing RouterOS platforms without additional dedicated hardware costs. Maximum consumption of 2W makes the R11e-LR9 ideal for battery-powered or limited-power devices.
FCC and IC certifications confirm compliance for commercial deployments in North America and Canada without additional homologation procedures. The operating range from -40°C to +60°C covers the climatic conditions of most IoT installation environments. IP00 means the module has no built-in protection and is intended for installation inside the host device enclosure. An MTBF of approximately 100,000 hours at 25°C confirms reliability for continuous use in active LoRaWAN gateways.
Recommended for integrators and developers adding 915 MHz LoRaWAN connectivity to existing MikroTik devices with a miniPCIe slot in regions using this frequency band, IoT projects in North America, Australia, and Brazil where the 902–928 MHz range is the regional standard, and any deployment where building a LoRaWAN gateway on the MikroTik RouterOS platform at minimum cost is preferred over dedicated gateway solutions.
