WI.232DTS-EVM
TM
Evaluation Wireless Module
915 MHz, 152.34 kbit/sec.
DESCRIPTION
The Wi.232DTS-EVM
TM
features the popular Wi.232DTS-R
TM
embedded radio
module in an evaluation design. It is pre-mounted on a small PCB with onboard
antenna connector and power supply regulator.
The Wi.232DTS-R
TM
module combines a state-of-the art low power wireless
transceiver with a powerful multipoint-to-multipoint protocol controller to form a
transparent wireless communication solution capable of replacing wires in
almost any RS-232/422/485 application. With a 111 dB link budget and very
low power operation modes, the Wi.232DTS-R
TM
module is excellent for
Automated Meter Reading (AMR), RFID, Home Automation, and any other
application requiring long range (<1,600ft. , line of sight) and long battery life.
The transceiver operates in two modes; low power and DTS. In low-power
mode, transmitter output power is 0 dBm and the maximum RF data is 76.8
kbit/sec. In DTS mode, the output power is +12 dBm
and the maximum RF data rate is 152.34 kbit/sec.
Radiotronix offers a footprint compatible FCC
modular approved module with certified FCC anten-
nas. Radiotronix evaluation modules are pin compat-
ible with other Radiotronix evaluation and FCC
approved radios. The Wi.DTS-USB
TM
FCC approved
base station is also available to interface with the
Wi.232DTS-EVM
TM
.
