Digi’s XStream-PKG RF modems can be configured in minutes to provide low-cost serial cable replacement between all types of electronic devices. Available in 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz models, XStream-PKG modems provide transmission ranges of up to 20 miles in a low-cost wireless solution. The modems are coupled with a DIP-switchable RS-232/422/485 interface board and regularly outperform more expensive RF modems.
Innovations stamped in their design enable XStream-PKG modems to yield two- to eight-times the range of competing modems. This allows OEMs and integrators to cover more ground with fewer devices. Additionally, XStream-PKG modems are easy to use, thereby reducing the complexity of data system development.
Available in a variety of data interface options, including RS-232/422/485 serial, USB and telephone, XStream-PKG modems can wirelessly connect a variety of devices across many applications including remote monitoring, building automation/ security, industrial automation/SCADA, fleet management/asset tracking and sensor data capture in embedded systems.
