Radiocrafts Introduce New High Performance Narrow Band Wireless Module Family RC17xxHP-RC232 RadiocraftsEmbedded Wireless Solutions
RC17xxHP modules at a glance • Narrowband operation down to 12.5 kHz • Very high sensitivity, selectivity and blocking • Industrial applications • Industrial remote controls • Telemetry • Alarm systems • Operates @ 169, 433, 444, 458, and 868 MHz • Custom specific bands / licensed band 160 -1000 MHz • Up to 500mW (optional 1W) output power
Radiocrafts 868 MHz Narrow band solutions Pout [dBm] RC1780HP +27 RC1280HP RC1780 +14 RC12x0 +8 Sensitivity [dBm] -108 -110 -118
Narrow band vs Wide band • 12.5 kHz or 25 kHz channels is narrow band in ETSI • ETSI EN300-220 Categories for narrow bands • Low RX filter bandwidth • gives better sensitivity • gives better noise immunity • limits max data rate (9.6 kbps) • Narrow band ACP requirements (adjacent channel Power)
RC17xxHP-RC232 Narrow band Frequencies • 169 MHz Metering, Asset tracking, Social Alarm • 500mW high power • 433 MHz License free band (low power) • 444 MHz Metering, specific bands in DK, NO, SE • 500mW high power • 458 MHz License free in UK, high power • 865 MHz License free India, high power • 868 MHz License free band (high power sub-band) • RF module can be adapted to other frequencies
RC17xxHP-RC232 Narrowband modules Complete RC232 protocol Multi-channels GFSK, GMSK, 4GFSK optional 12.5 and 25 kHz channels Data rate up to 9.6 kbps for narrow band Data rate 19.2 - 100 kbps for wide band use Output power variants 14 dBm, 43 mA HP: 27 dBm, 370 mA -118 dBm sensitivity, 31 mA 150 dB link budget (>20 km range LOS)
