Description
Compact and flexible cellular connectivity for IoT devices as well as gateways
Digi XBee 3 Cellular Modules accelerate time-to-market for designers, OEMs and solution providers by quickly enabling wireless connectivity and easy-to-add functionality. Built on industry-leading technology, the pre-certified Digi XBee 3 modules provide the flexibility to switch between multiple frequencies and wireless protocols as needed.
Digi XBee 3 modules are the latest addition to the expanding Digi XBee ecosystem of wireless modules, gateways, software and development tools – all designed to accelerate development and deployment. The Digi XBee 3 Cellular LTE-M/NB-IoT modules are ideal for applications with low data traffic (typically <5 MB per month and where latency is not critical), low power consumption and low cost, and feature a power saving mode that extends sleep time and battery life.
Digi Remote Manager® allows Digi XBee 3 modules to be configured and controlled from a simple, centralized platform. Built-in Digi TrustFence® security, identity and privacy features protect against new and evolving cyber threats with more than 175 controls. Standard Digi XBee API frames and AT commands, MicroPython, and Digi XCTU® software tools simplify feature addition, setup, configuration, and testing.
