## Description
|
|
The MeshPoE-S3 is a universal mesh node designed for use in LoRA mesh networks such as **Reticulum**, **Meshtastic**, and **MeshCore**.
|
|
It is mostly designed for stationary deployment and PoE power.
|
|
|
|
- Based on the [WaveShare ESP32-S3 ETH Development Board](https://www.waveshare.com/esp32-s3-eth.htm)
|
|
- LoRA modules: [EByte E22-series](https://www.cdebyte.com/products/E22-900M30S)
|
|
|
|
Key features:
|
|
|
|
- **Compact form factor** suitable for outdoor mesh nodes
|
|
- **Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)** support for convenient outdoor or roof deployment
|
|
- **Ethernet connectivity** for reliable wired networking
|
|
- **GPIO headers** for easy customization and expandability
|
|
- Optional **DS3231MZ+ RTC** for timekeeping
|
|
- Optional **I2C** environment sensor support (BME280, BME680, etc)
|
