AeroComm Extends Breadth Of ZigBee(TM) Your Way(TM) Transceiver Product Line
LENEXA, KANSAS and LAS VEGAS, NEVADA (CES # 26426-I) - January 8, 2007 - AeroComm Inc., the most established global supplier of complete RF solutions for OEMs, enhances the ZB2430 "ZigBee Your Way" transceiver line to feature best-in-class output power, receive sensitivity, and line-of-sight range (up to three miles).
Furthermore, the company has developed the lowest cost ZigBee Module on the market, the ZB2430-D. Targeted at high volume, cost-sensitive, short-range applications where battery-powered communication is a must, ZB2430-D is the industry's first sub-$10 ZigBee module.
"Manufacturers have made it clear that cost and range are the two critical elements in their wireless industrial automation projects," said Michael Varady, AeroComm's CTO. "The introduction of our cutting-edge ZB2430 products extends our leadership position in the ZigBee marketplace while providing our customers with the broadest ZigBee module offering, at the most competitive prices."
Based on the Texas Instruments 802.15.4 System-on-Chip and Z-Stack(TM) technology, ZB2430 targets secure, low power, mesh network applications. It communicates in the 2.4GHz ISM band, making it ideal for OEMs preferring to standardize on one global platform for their end product needs.
Modules are offered as either Coordinators & Routers or End-Devices. Network scan, auto-configuration, dynamic routing, discovery, and security enable the mesh network--delivering reliable redundancy, secure multi-communication nodes and long range performance. Embedded flash memory of 128 KB provides room for larger, more complex application profiles.
AeroComm's unique "ZigBee Your Way" concept allows OEMs to customize and optimize a hardware solution for the specific demands of their applications. Options include provisions for on-board or remote antenna, enhanced receiver sensitivity, enhanced output power, remote radio configuration, surface mount or pluggable modules, to name a few. A helpful, interactive selection guide will be available online this spring.
Comprehensive ZB2430 Developer Kits are currently available from AeroComm and Mouser Electronics (www.mouser.com). Each Kit will include evaluation boards with multiple configuration options selectable by OEM's to determine the feature set that is best suited for their application.
