XBee Wi-Fi Module, Embedded PCB Antenna

Description

XBee Wi-Fi Module, Embedded PCB Antenna
XB24-WFPIT-001
XBee Wi-Fi embedded RF modules provide simple serial-to-802.11 connectivity. By bridging the low-power/low-cost requirements of wireless device networking with the proven infrastructure of IEEE 802.11, the XBee Wi-Fi creates new wireless opportunities for energy management, process and factory automation, wireless sensor networks, intelligent asset management and more. Focused on the rigorous requirements of these wireless device networks, the XBee Wi-Fi gives you IP-to-device capability.
XBee modules offer tremendous flexibility. The XBee Wi-Fi shares a common footprint with other XBee modules. This allows different XBee technologies to be drop-in replacements for each other; you can switch from 802.11 to 802.15.4, ZigBee, DigiMesh and proprietary long-range with minimal development time or risk.
As a member of the XBee family, the XBee Wi-Fi combines hardware with software for a complete modular solution. XBee Wi-Fi modules are designed to communicate with access points in existing 802.11 infrastructures. You can use AT and API commands for advanced configuration options.
