Product Details
Description
ZigBee® is a specification for a suite of high level communication protocols using small, low-power digital radios based on the IEEE 802.15.4-2006 standard for wireless personal area networks (WPANs).
ZigBee® is targeted at radio-frequency (RF) applications that require a low data rate, secure networking, and low power consumption, especially for the battery powered Z-2400-Sleeper modules.
The Z-2400 Series operate with the user friendly MicroScan SCADA (Version 5.1 or later) software.
If you are looking for wireless monitoring and/or remote control solutions, the Z-2400 modules may be the answer.
Z-2400 devices have the ability to form a mesh network between modules. This technique allows the short range of an individual module to be expanded and multiplied, covering a much larger area.
When the mesh network discovers a new Z-2400 module, it will automatically incorporate it into the current network. If a node malfunctions, the mesh network will route the data through an alternate path using another node.
Ideal for laboratories, Hospitals, Industry and Utilities!
