$159.00
- $179.00
Description:
The ZR-100 is a small but powerful embedded reader with open-air ranges of over 1mi. It is designed for embedded applications (to be plugged into another circuit board), and contains both a UART-compatible TTL-level data interface as well as a higher-voltage RS-232 serial interface for easy integration (USB not used).
The ZR-100 communicates via the industry standard protocol IEEE 802.15.4. The operating frequency of 2.45 GHz enables this reader to have an excellent range of >1mi with an external antenna (not included).
This reader is designed for use with our ZT-50 and ZT-500 active tags.
Can be used with Arduino modules.
Features:
• Custom commands implemented over industry standard IEEE 802.15.4 physical layer protocol
• Communication range over 1 mile (~1.6km) in open air (at full power w/ 5dBi omini antenna)
• A single reader can support up to ~50 tags at a time with CSMA collision avoidance protocol
• Bi-directional reader-tag communication -- can send user commands as well as data
• Internal voltage regulator (accepts 5-9V input voltage)
• Logic Levels: Thee are separate headers for TTL and RS-232 serial interface, respectively.
• Adjustable transmit power
Connectors:
The ZR-100 comes standard with an RP-SMA jack connector. (NO ANTENNA !)
As a custom order, the ZR-100 can also ship with an MMCX jack.
