Mini-PCIe LoRa Gateway with PMOD and POE

This small LoRa gateway adapter (75x41mm) is motivated by the generous donation of a (n-fuse)[https://www.n-fuse.co/]'s LoRaWan concentrator card. This version of the board is meant to work with the USB firmware for the n-fuse board:

Future versions might switch to the UART version of the n-fuse firmware.

RAK wireless boards might work with this adapter, but they are not tested... I'm open to receive a RAKWireless board to try it out :).

The intention with this board is to have a maker-friendly LoRa gateway base design for modular gateways that incorporates the PMOD flexibility.

One could think it as a fusion of the following new developments (before they actually existed):

Software

There's the OpenWrt package that accompanies this work (and needs just a little bit more OSS love):

openwrt/packages#8264

Which is pretty much a way to upstream the work shown by Felix Wiedemann on hackster.io with several UX improvements.

All in all, a neat experiment with 4 layer board design as a hobby while collaborating with a great company.

Thanks again n-fuse!
