XCite Embedded RF Modules 900 MHz Embedded RF Modules for OEMs 900 MHz embedded RF modules provide OEMs with a low-cost wireless solution. Overview Application Highlight Digis XCite embedded RF modules enable easy and reliable serial wireless connectivity between devices with minimal XCite-PKG RF Modem XCite OEM RF Module development out-of-the-box. A low-cost alternative to XStream embedded RF modules, XCite modules are pin-for- pin and over-the-air compatible with XStream modules (in 9.6 kbps configurations). RF Signal Innovations stamped in their design enable XCite RF modules to yield two- to eight-times the range of competing RF devices. This allows OEMs and integrators to cover more ground with USB RS-232/422/485 fewer devices, with increased reliability. Additionally, XCite RF modules are easy to use, thereby reducing the complexity of data system development and time to market. PC Available in a variety of configurations, including Commercial or Industrial Temperature ratings, and two antenna variants, XCite RF modules 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.
