GC-ESP32-PORT-N Description:Features:The GC-ESP32-PORT is a family of embedded networking modules that allow the user to create a customized modular solution for all of their networking requirements.  The GC-ESP32-PORT modules are all based on the powerful ESP32 processor.  The ESP32 processor has all the communication interfaces required to implement today’s wired and wireless standards; these in-clude:  Wi-Fi, BLE, Ethernet, UART (RS232, RS485), I2C, I2S, and SPI.  Each module has different communication hardware and software options that are available for use.Communication Interfaces•  Wi-Fi•  BLE•  RMii•  SPI, I2S, I2C•  I/O•  UART (RS232, RS422, RS485)Wi-Fi, BLEHaving a combination of BLE, and Wi-Fi on board makes the modules suitable for a variety of wireless networks, allowing for both Wi-Fi based internet connections and local BLE connections to a smart phone or tablet.RMiiTBDProcessorThe ESP32 has two CPU cores that can be individually controlled and a clock frequency that is adjustable from 80 MHz to 240 MHz.  The ESP32 also has a sleep mode processor that allows for sleep current of less than 5 µA, making it suitable for battery powered applications. Software / FirmwareThe GC-ESP-PORT component utilizes the free RTOS operating system (now owned by Amazon/AWS) with LwIP and a built-in TLS 1.2 with hardware acceleration. It also offers secure, encrypted over-the-air (OTA) updates so that the module rmware can be updated remotely without manual or physical intervention.  The AWS cloud extensions provide an application interface (API) for develop-ers that want to implement cloud applications. Grid Connect has made available for the GC-ESP32-PORT family different rmware and hardware that allows the user to use for standard applications:•  Serial tunneling between the UART and Wi-Fi•  Serial tunneling between the UART and Ethernet•  Bridging between Wi-Fi and Ethernet•  Basic AWS cloud connection•  Custom rmware available If you wish to develop your own software/rmware there is a standard SDK with many options for your application.  The development environment for ESP32 is available on-line and is open source and free.•  Wi-Fi/BLE 4.2 •  Ethernet RMii•  Serial    - UART for TTL, RS232,       RS422, RS485   - SPI, I2C, I2S•  Embedded ESP32-D2WQ main processor chip•  2 MB SPI ash embedded•  540 KB SRAM•  2 CPU cores that can be  controlled individually•  Adjustable clock frequency 80 MHz to 240 MHz•  FCC/IC certied1630 W.

Radiation Exposure Statement:This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolledenvironment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cmbetween the radiator and your body.Déclarationd'exposition aux radiations:Cetéquipementestconforme aux limitesd'exposition aux rayonnements IC établies pour unenvironnement non contrôlé. Cetéquipementdoitêtreinstallé et utilisé avec un minimum de20cm de distance entre la source de rayonnement et votre corpsOEM Integration Instructions:This device is intended only for OEM integrator under the following conditions. The modulecan be used as certified in a host product if:1. The antenna is installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and any enduser.2. The transmitter module and antenna are not co-located with any other transmit or antenna.3. The module is only used with the antenna(s) originally tested and certified with this module.As long as 3 conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required.However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additionalcompliance requirement with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PCperipheral requirements, etc.).The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:Contains FCC ID: 2AFC3ESP32P001, IC: 22503-ESP32P001The GC-ESP32-PORT-N  may only be used with the following antennas:Antenna Type Manufacturer Frequency Range(MHz) Maximum PeakAntenna Gain (dBi)Whip V.TORCH VTWFA-3 2400-2480 3dBiTrace Airgain N2420 2400-2480 3.8dBiany 50 Ohm antenna of the same type and frequency range, with equal or lesser gain.IMPORTANT NOTE:In the event that the above conditions cannot be met (for example certain device configurationor co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC / ISED authorization for this module incombination with the host equipment is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID / ICnumber of the module cannot be used on the final product. In these and circumstance, theOEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating. The end product (including thetransmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
