DC9000 SmartMesh IP Starter Kit Wireless Mesh Network, Wired Reliability The DC9000 SmartMesh IP Starter Kit provides all the tools for evaluating SmartMesh network performance with respect to your application needs, including high reliability, ultralow power, scalability and ease of installation. This accelerates device integration and application software development. The DC9000 Starter Kit includes five motes, or nodes (DC9003A-B), to enable you to quickly deploy a multi-hop mesh network in the RF environment specific to your application. The StarGazer evaluation software graphical user interface (GUI) allows you to quickly see the mesh network form, as well as key performance statistics, such as data reliability and latency. The DC9003A-B Evaluation/Development Mote Modules feature easy-to-probe signal pins. In addition, the starter kit provides access to both manager and mote software application programming interfaces (APIs) over USB to enable application software development. The DC9000 Starter Kit operates in the 2.4000GHz to 2.4835GHz international license-free frequency band. Starter kits and demo boards are for evaluation purposes only. It remains the customers responsibility to verify proper and reliable operation in the actual end application. About SmartMesh IP SmartMesh IP is built for Internet Protocol (IP) compatibility, and is based on 6LoWPAN and 802.15.4e standards. The SmartMesh IP product line achieves unsurpassed levels of networking resilience and reliability with advanced network management and compre- hensive security. SmartMesh IP enables unmatched low power consumption, even in harsh, dynamically changing RF environments. Cost-effective, IP-compatible and widely applicable, SmartMesh IP serves an extensive range of applications, such as energy management, building automation, renewable energy and other implementations in smart infrastructure that call for ultralow power.
