Module with Telit LTE.
Makers of Remotely deployed sensors and devices have settled for the compromises, expense, and provisioning/maintenance complexity of traditional RF connectivity for years. Cellular connectivity addresses many of these drawbacks – but still hasn’t been cost-feasible for smaller deployments of ten or fewer devices. Today, that’s changing. The Digi XBee Cellular family simplifies your deployment of embedded cellular connectivity by reducing or eliminating the time and cost of development and certification to incorporate cellular technology into your products.
The New Option for Embedded Cellular Connectivity:
- Configures locally with XCTU or remotely with Digi Remote Manager™
- SSL/TLS for secure communications
- OTA firmware updates
- 3.3 V power with low-power options for battery-powered applications
- Standard Digi XBee AT and API interfaces
- Authentic 20-pin Digi XBee through-hole form factor
- FCC pre-certified, Verizon end-device-certified, and (coming soon) hot-shipping on the Verizon network
- Industry’s smallest end-devicecertified cellular module
- Industry’s fastest path to embedded cellular connectivity with LTE Cat 1
KEY INDUSTRIES
