DESCRIPTION
CEL's MeshConnect™ Sub-G modules are built on the Si1000
and Si1002 highly integrated wireless SoC's from Silicon Labs.
Targeting dense operating environments, CEL's MeshConnect
Sub-G modules deliver superior range and performance. Their
low power consumption enables longer battery life and their link
budgets provide reliable transmission in non line of sight ap-
plications such as lighting control, industrial sensor networks,
serial wire replacement, metering, irrigation and more. At +13
and +20 dBm power outputs, the new Sub-G modules offer 868
MHz (Europe) and 915 MHz (Americas) ISM band options. As
certified and qualified modules, the MeshConnect Sub-G solu-
tions eliminate the need for costly certifications, reducing overall
system cost and accelerating time to market.
APPLICATIONS
• Lighting Control
• Irrigation
• Serial wire replacement
• Industrial Sensor Networks
• Wireless M-Bus Metering
• Home Automation & Smart Plugs
• Security
• And more...
