Radio Modems operate on European 433 MHz ISM band.

Press Release Summary:




Acting as transparent serial cable to attached host, TXL2/RXL2 Modules provide preamble, synchronization, bit balancing, and error checking along with automatic noise squelching. Simplex, multi-channel OEM radio modems feature baud rate of 9,600 bps, transmit power of +10 dBm at 10 mW, and receiver sensitivity of -107 dBm for 1% BER. For multiple radio systems, TXL2/RXL2 can be set to 1 of 8 unique addresses and allow operation on 1 of 5 pre-set frequencies in 433 MHz band.



Original Press Release:



UHF Multi Channel Transparent Data Link TX/RX



The TXL2 and RXL2 modules are 9600baud simplex multi channel OEM radio modems in a Radiometrix SIL standard footprint, operating on European 433MHz ISM band. The TXL2/RXL2 pair act as a transparent serial cable to attached host. Unlike raw FM radio modules (e.g. TX2A/RX2A), TXL2/RXL2 will take care of preamble, synchronisation, bit balancing and error checking along with automatic noise squelching.

The TXL2/RXL2 pair provides a one-way radio link. Provided no two devices attempt to transmit simultaneously no further restrictions on data transmission need be made, as all transmit timing, valid data identification and datastream buffering is conducted by the units. Synchronisation and framing words in the packet prevent the receiver outputting garbage in the absence of wanted RF signal or presence of interference. For multiple radio systems a TXL2/RXL2 can be set to 1 of 8 unique addresses. As well as having unique addresses, the TXL2/RXL2 allow operation on one of 5 pre-set frequencies in the 433MHz band. These frequencies are non-overlapping and simultaneous operation of TXL2/RXL2 pairs in the same area on different channels will be possible. Units are supplied on 433.925MHz (Ch0) as default.
