Description
Digi XBee® LR – The Smart LoRaWAN® Solution for Connected IoT Applications
With the Digi XBee® LR series, Digi delivers a powerful and versatile solution for reliable IoT wireless communication. These compact LoRaWAN® modules are designed to give OEMs and developers an easy way to integrate connectivity into end devices, sensors, and control systems, enabling rapid time-to-market and long-range performance.
The RF modules use energy-efficient LoRa® modulation to provide stable, long-distance connections even in challenging environments. With an ultra-low sleep current of only 600 nA, they are ideal for battery-powered devices and ensure extended operational life for IoT applications.
Featuring modular FCC, IC, and CE certifications, Digi XBee LR modules reduce development time and cost. Thanks to their universal MMT footprint, they can be seamlessly integrated into existing hardware designs. A single SKU supports multiple regions and frequency bands, such as US915 and EU868, offering maximum flexibility for global IoT solutions.
Through the cloud-based Digi X-ON® platform, the modules enable zero-touch provisioning: devices can be remotely configured, managed, and updated. The integrated Digi Embedded API and AT command mode further simplify communication with host systems and sensors.
Whether in smart cities, industrial sensor networks, or environmental monitoring, the Digi XBee® LR series delivers reliable, energy-efficient, and scalable LoRaWAN® connectivity for the Internet of Things.
