Particle BRN404XKIT Boron Cellular Development Tool

Particle BRN404X Cellular Development Tool is a powerful LTE Cat M1 enabled development kit that supports cellular networks and BLUETOOTH® LE (BLE). It is based on the Nordic nRF52840 and has built-in battery charging circuitry, so it’s easy to connect a Li-Po and deploy your local network in minutes. The BRN404X is great for connecting existing projects to the Particle Device Cloud, where Wi-Fi® is missing or unreliable.
