Telit Wireless Solutions has announced the market introduction of the LE70-868point-to-point, star-topology, short-range wireless module for the European multi-kilometer range wired-to-wireless network migration market in application areas such as solar/wind farms and agricultural automation.
The new module operates on the 868MHz European ISM license-free frequency allowing manufacturers to quickly integrate wireless communication, control for meeting regulatory compliance on the short-range radio link. High 500mW configurable radio output power combined with -112dBbm sensitivity, significantly improve the customer device’s operating range- up to 10Km - and reliability.
As a member of the Telit Short Range module family, the LE70-868 is fully form-factor compatible with its ZigBee and Low-Power Mesh counterparts, as well as air-interface inter-connectable to the lower-radio-power LE50 series point-to-point star-topology short-range wireless products.
“The LE70-868 was designed to help manufacturers of electronic devices which have traditionally been cable-networked go wireless quickly and easily. The LE70-868 follows the engineering tradition of all our cellular and short-range modules, with industry-topping performance and features that can significantly lower BOM cost and engineering complexity,” said Dominikus Hierl, chief marketing officer at Telit Wireless Solutions.
The LE70-868 is made available in convenient LGA and DIP mounting solutions with a range of development tools and associated products such as cellular gateways.
