Wireless module suitable for M2M market segment

Laird Technologies has released the LT1110 915MHz wireless module that is said to be suitable for the M2M market segment, particularly sensors and handheld data loggers.

The 915MHz FHSS module is based on proprietary FlexRF technology and is claimed to exceed most OEM application and performance requirements by providing a high-performance, configurable, secure, compatible and integrated wireless solution.

Embedded with Laird Technologies' robust server-client protocol, the LT1110 permits an unlimited number of clients to synchronise to a single server for low-latency communications.

The server and all clients in a network can communicate with any radio in range via either addressed or broadcast packets.

The configuration and test software allows OEMs to design and test networks to suit their applications.

From the OEM integrator's point of view, the LT1110's interface (API, configuration, and so on) is 100 per cent compatible with the LT2510, allowing the OEM to select either 915MHz or 2.4GHz.

The enhanced API commands provide packet routing control and network intelligence.

With its field-proven Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) RF protocol and increased penetration at 915MHz, the LT1110 rejects RF noise, is claimed to excel in multipath scenarios, allows for co-located systems, and provides a reliable communication link.

The module is also FCC certified.

Chris Downey, product manager - telematics and wireless M2M at Laird Technologies, said: 'The LT1110 915MHz wireless module is an easy-to-use and integrate platform that offers simple wireless communications for point-to-point and point-to-multipoint networks.

'It builds on Laird's series of FHSS radios, including the AC4490, LT4424 and LT2510, and is suitable for the M2M market segment, particularly sensors and handheld data loggers,' he added.
