PowerOne 915 MHz radio modem
PowerOne radio modems are complete RF solutions for long range reliable data transmission. The 915 Mhz PowerOne radio modem is a frequency hopping radio modem, delivering 500mW in the 915 MHz ISM band (a US license free frequency band). As a multi channel radio modem, it allows 'point-to-point', 'multipoint' or 'network' functioning modes. The FCC part 15.247 regulates the frequency hopping RF devices. Featuring a powerful embedded firmware, a half duplex RF module and power supply management, these 500mW radio modems bring high efficiency to wireless applications.
