868 MHzTransceiver

Compact 868MHz transceivers can replace miles of cable in harsh environments. Using field-proven FHSS technology which needs no additional ETSI (Europe) licensing, OEMs with little or no previous RF experience can easily and quickly make existing systems wireless.

AC4486s feature drop-in installation and a number of on-the-fly control commands, providing OEMs with a versatile interface. They can be used as direct wire replacements, requiring no special host software for communication. All frequency hopping, synchronization, and RF system data transmission/reception is performed by the transceiver.

The modules are socket-compatible with Laird Technologie's 900MHz AC4490 modules and 2.4GHz AC4424 models to allow for interchanging the network's frequency. This preserves OEMs' hardware/software investments while providing solutions that meet different markets and regulations.
