DRAGINO SDI-12 to NB-IoT Converter is an SDI-12 to NB-IoT converter designed to collect data from SDI-12 environmental, agricultural and weather station sensors and transmit the information wirelessly. It provides controllable 3.3 V, 5 V and 12 V outputs for external sensors, supports multiple sampling with a single uplink and offers MQTT, MQTTS, TCP and UDP communication options. Bluetooth v5.1 configuration and OTA firmware updates simplify device management.

  • The DRAGINO SDI-12 to NB-IoT Converter is designed to bridge SDI-12 environmental sensors and NB-IoT wireless connectivity. SDI-12 is an asynchronous serial communication protocol commonly used with agricultural and weather station sensors. The converter reads data from connected SDI-12 sensors and sends the collected information over an NB-IoT network.

    The unit provides controllable 3.3 V, 5 V and 12 V outputs for powering external sensors. It can perform multiple sensor samples before sending a single uplink, helping support monitoring configurations where measurements are collected at intervals and transmitted periodically.

    How it works

    • Connect a compatible SDI-12 sensor to the converter.
    • The converter communicates with the sensor using the SDI-12 protocol and collects its measurement data.
    • The connected sensor can be powered through the converter's controllable 3.3 V, 5 V or 12 V output.
    • Measurements can be sampled multiple times before being sent in an uplink.
    • Data can be transmitted over NB-IoT using MQTT, MQTTS, TCP or UDP.
    • Bluetooth v5.1 can be used for remote configuration and firmware updates.

    Why choose this product

    • Connects SDI-12 sensors to NB-IoT: Provides a practical wireless link between compatible SDI-12 instruments and an NB-IoT network.
    • Flexible sensor power: The manufacturer specifies controllable 3.3 V, 5 V and 12 V outputs for external sensors.
    • Multiple communication options: Supports MQTT, MQTTS, TCP and UDP uplinks for different IoT system requirements.
    • Remote configuration: Bluetooth v5.1 support allows configuration and firmware updates without requiring a direct wired connection.
    • Low-power design: The manufacturer specifies ultra-low power consumption and a STOP-mode current of 10 µA at 3.3 V.

    Benefits

    The DRAGINO SDI-12 to NB-IoT Converter can simplify the deployment of remote environmental monitoring systems by combining sensor interfacing, sensor power and NB-IoT communication in one device. Its support for different uplink protocols also allows it to be incorporated into a range of IoT data platforms.
