Perfect for any DIY IOT project, qBox Enclosure Kit series is the part of the newest HW platform designed to help hobbiests, makers and all DIYers to build environmental ready IOT solutions.

qBox DIY IOT Enclosure Kit features:

• Flanged IP65 waterproof enclosure: Sealed, made of high-quality ABS material suitable for indoor and outdoor DIY IoT projects;

• Incorporated PG7 cable glands: Two cable inputs securely allow bringing the power in and connecting sensors and actuators;

• Perfect fit PCB: High-quality double-sided PCB with 0.1" hole spacing for DIP integrated circuits, modules, and main controller board;

• Fixed placement for controller board: Well designed PCB allows to carry a variety of MCU boards like Adafruit Feather Compatible, Arduino MKR Compatible, NodeMCU, etc;

• Built in SMA connectors : Two SMA Straight Female to IPEX（U.FL） adapter cables give external antenna connection to your wireless board;

• Arduino UNO compatible board carrier feature: Arduino UNO compatible board could be mounted at the top of PCB with fasteners kit included;

• Dedicated Connectors positions: Terminal blocks, Grove and 0.1" DIP  power and interface connectors could be easily soldered onto the PCB.

What's it:

Each qBox Enclosure Kit consists of durable waterproof IP65 enclosure with installed PG7 glands, double sided PCB with dedicated placements for IOT controller and connectors and two integrated SMA to u.FL adapter cables.

External DC voltage from power adapter or solar system could be brought by cable through the one gland inner and another gland gives opportunity to connect external sensors or actuators.

Up to two GSM / LTE / WiFi / LoRa / etc. external antennas could be connected to wireless board u.FL PCB connectors via SMA to IPEX (u.FL) adapter cables glued into enclosure wall.

Two M3 self tapping screws securely attach the PCB to the enclosure. Same time board could be easily removed.

Enclosure has enough room to keep with or without stacking header one IOT controller board like Adafruit Feather Compatible (AFC) or Arduino MKR Compatible (AMC) or another IOT board, power supply (DC/DC), OLED display and sensor modules using plain grid proto holes.

Up to four plugable 3,5mm terminal blocks, one Grove and several DIP 0.1" I2C interface connectors could be populated.

Two separate power traces for VDD and GND along short PCB sides allow bring the power to sensor boards.

Four additional holes and fasteners kit allow to mount Arduino Uno compatible board at the top of PCB.

Transparent lid lets see internal parts, electronics, LEDs and even display and is able to hold LiPol battery to be applied to the internal surface.

Using qBox Enclosure Kit the variety of IOT DIY and POC projects could be done, like LoRa-based soil moisture monitoring project, home WiFi garage door opener, NB-IOT bee hive monitoring system, GSM GPS asset tracking solution and many others.
