@ANY2400-SC-Pro USB dongles are reliable, advanced,host-powered gateway solutions. Integrated design offers leading edge RF characteristics within a compact sized form factor. Antenna diversity mechanisms implemented via two on-chip ceramic antennas are perfectly matched, while minimizing RF interference losses. A special low noise amplifier front end module fires up the transmitters output power to 18 dBm, so that the incoming signal with even a minimal strength of -121 dBm becomes receivable.
The on-board UART chip facilitates easy serial connection setup via USB interface. Supported with off-the-shelf drivers by the commercially maintained FTDI Driver Suite, the USB 2.0 compliant interface ensures a seamless integration to various operating systems. White plastic enclosures are available as accessories on demand.
Ensure the quick setup by ordering the product preprogrammed with either our AT-command-based Smart MAC Suite firmware, your own firmware, or common stacks such as 6LoWPAN, Zigbee PRO or Lightweight Mesh.
