The Digi International XBEE RF transceiver is high tech device that operates in the frequency band of 2.4GHz. The transceiver is built with the silicon labs EM357 system-on-chip microcontroller. The design has improved power consumption, support for over-the-air firmware updates and provides an upgrade path to DigiMesh or ZigBee mesh protocols. The module communicates through a wire antenna. It also provides a long-range line-of-sight communication 1200m.
