BroodMinder-SubHub
The BroodMinder-SubHub is a Bluetooth range extender and a high speed data vault in a box about the size of a TV remote. It makes managing and reading many BroodMinder devices easy.
The BroodMinder-SubHub wakes up every 10 minutes and stores data from all of your BroodMinder devices that it finds. This means that when you go to read your data with your phone, you only read the -SubHub instead of all of the individual sensors. And it features a turbo-transfer protocol which will transfer a month's worth of data from 50 devices in 2 minutes. It's a great time saver.
We made a change in 2024 and the SubHub is now in a weatherproof housing. No additional protection is needed.
The BroodMinder-SubHub will also re-transmit the real-time data over 1,000 feet (330 meters) away. This allows you to take an old cell phone (with Bluetooth) and run our Apiary app in Hub Mode. This is our least expensive way to see real time data. Please note that Hub Mode in the Apiary app is a premium feature and requires a subscription for real-time data.
note: BroodMinder-WIFI does not listen to -SubHub due to high power requirements.

Installation
BroodMinder-SubHub installs in the middle of the apiary, close to the monitored hives and in particular to internal monitors (T2, TH) since they have the most short in range. Mount it on a pod or against a wall and even on top of one hive. Ideally you should leave it 1.5m above the ground. Do not place it on the ground where any radio signal will drastically drop.
