Digi XBee LPX 900 RF Modules
Digi XBee LPX 900 RF Modules provide a compact and dependable RF solution optimized for long-range wireless connectivity. Fully interoperable with Digi XBee-PRO 900HP, these modules incorporate a built-in Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filter to reduce out-of-band interference, ensuring faster and more reliable data transmission. Operating in the 902MHz to 928MHz ISM band, the modules are pre-certified for regulatory compliance, simplifying integration and deployment.
Designed for flexibility, Digi XBee LPX 900 supports over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates and can be easily configured using the Digi XBee® Studio or through Digi’s intuitive AT and API command sets. Integrated antennas eliminate the complexity of RF design and reduce development costs, enabling rapid time-to-market for OEM solutions. With an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, the modules are ideal for demanding environments.
Featuring DigiMesh networking for best-in-class mesh and multipoint communication, the LPX 900 offers line-of-sight ranges up to 10.5 miles, making the modules an excellent choice for agriculture, energy, and other applications requiring long-distance connectivity.
As a complete hardware and software solution, the Digi XBee LPX 900 works out of the box and integrates seamlessly with Digi XBee Tools, supporting the entire Internet of Things (IoT) lifecycle, from evaluation and prototyping to deployment and long-term network management.
