Digi XTend Radio Modem

About the Digi XTend

900 MHz radio modems offer long-range performance, advanced networking and simple out-of-the-box operation with multiple data interface options

Digi's XTend-PKG RF modems provide everything you need for out-of-the-box serial cable replacement, enabling quick wireless connectivity of electronic devices across a broad range of applications. Simply feed data into one modem and the data is transported to the other end of a long range wireless link. Data security is provided by 256-bit AES encryption (128-bit AES is available outside of North America). If more advanced functionality is needed, the modems support an extensive set of AT and binary commands.

Available in multiple interface options, including RS-232/422/485 and USB, XTend modems are ideally suited for remote monitoring, building automation/security, industrial automation/SCADA, fleet management/asset tracking and sensor data capture in embedded systems.
