The GW11048-7 is a development kit for the GW16167 WiFi HaLow radio that contains a GW7200-00 single board computer and accessories.

The GW7200-00 is a member of the Gateworks 7th generation Venice family of single-board computers targeted for rugged and industrial embedded applications. The GW7200 features the 64-bit NXP™ i.MX 8M Mini or Plus Quad Core ARM ® Cortex™-A53 SoC processor operating at 1.6GHz, 1GBytes of LPDDR4 DRAM, and 8GBytes of eMMC System Flash. More DRAM or eMMC optional.

Two Mini-PCIe expansion sockets can be used for PCI Express peripherals such as 802.11ax/ac/b/g/n Wi-Fi radios, 5G/4G/3G/CATM1 cellular modems. The GW16140 M.2 Adapter can be used for many high-speed 5G cellular modems. Peripheral headers support Digital I/O, Analog Input, RS232/RS485/TTL Serial, I2C and SPI. A combined MIPI-DSI/CSI header with I2S audio offers video input/output (not supported on i.MX 8M Plus). A MicroSD & Nano SIM slot are standard. A 3-axis accelerometer is standard. An optional GPS is available. A TPM 2.0 secure crypto-processor is optional for ensuring system security and integrity.

The Gateworks System Controller provides embedded features such as a real-time clock, voltage and temperature monitor, programmable pushbutton, and programmable board shut-down and wake-up for remote applications. A wide-range DC input power supply provides up to 15W of power.

Power is applied through a dedicated barrel jack or an Ethernet port in an active 802.3af/at or passive Power over Ethernet (PoE) (PD) architecture. Ubuntu Linux BSP is supported. OpenWrt, Yocto, Buildroot Optional
