Digi International has introduced the XBee-PRO XSC, a cost-effective 900 MHz embedded RF module that provides up to 15 miles RF line-of-sight transmission in the postage-stamp sized XBee form factor. The 802.15.4, ZigBee and long-range point-to-multipoint platforms in the XBee form factor are available. The XBee-PRO XSC is suitable for wireless solutions requiring long-range performance in a cost-optimised, easy-to-deploy module solution. Compatible with certain variants of Digi's XStream family of wireless modems and modules, the XBee-PRO XSC is suitable for use as a pure cable replacement for simple serial communication or as part of a more complex hub-and-spoke network. Digi provides a complete range of Drop-in Networking box products that use the XBee form factor. The XBee XSC is compatible with Digi gateways that provide XBee-to-Ethernet, Wi-Fi and cellular functionality as well as adapters that provide XBee-to-serial, analogue I/O and digital I/O functionality. The XBee-PRO XSC is available now.
