XBee® & XBee-PRO® ZB
Embedded RF modules provide low-cost, low-power wireless connectivity using the ZigBee PRO Feature Set
XBee and XBee-PRO ZB embedded RF modules provide cost-effective wireless connectivity to devices in ZigBee mesh networks. Utilizing the ZigBee PRO Feature Set, these modules are interoperable with other ZigBee devices, including devices from other vendors*.
Products in the XBee family are easy to use. They require no configuration or additional development; users can have their network up and running in a matter of minutes. Programmable versions of the XBee-PRO ZB module make customizing ZigBee applications easy. Programming directly on the module eliminates the need for a separate processor. Because the wireless software is isolated, applications can be developed with no risk to RF performance or security.
XBee modules are available in a variety of protocols and frequencies. The common hardware footprint shared by Digi’s XBee modules means users can substitute one XBee for another with minimal development time and risk.
*Interoperability requires the ZigBee Feature Set or ZigBee PRO Feature Set to be deployed on all devices. Contact Digi Support for details.
