Wireless Connectivity

Implementing applications with wireless networking is becoming commonplace. From consumer devices to industrial applications, there is a growing expectation that devices will have built-in the ability to talk to each other without a hard-wired connection. The challenge is to select the right wireless networking protocol and implement it in a cost-effective manner.

To build an advanced wireless system, most developers will end up choosing between two industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) radio band options—2.4GHz or sub-GHz frequencies. Pairing one or the other with the system’s highest priorities will provide the best combination of wireless performance and economy.

These priorities can include Range, Power consumption, Data rates, Antenna size, Interoperability (standards) & worldwide deployment.
Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth® and ZigBee® technologies are heavily marketed 2.4GHz protocols used extensively in today’s markets. However, for low-data-rate applications, such as home security/automation and smart metering, sub-GHz wireless systems offer several advantages, including longer range, reduced power consumption, lower interference and lower deployment and operating costs.

We Offer both Sub GHz & GHz transceivers with IEEE 802.15.4 2.4 GHz radio Transmitter with Zigbee Pro, Zigbee RFCE & 6LoWPAN stacks & Sub GHz transceiver with 415, 868, 915 or 960 MHz bands.
