802.15.4/ZigBee
The classic topology of this type of network is mesh, as the nodes can establish point to point connections with brother nodes
through the use the MAC address doing multi-hop connections when it is necessary.

DigiMesh 2.4GHz
Module Frequency Tx Power Sensitivity Channels Distance
PRO 2,405 – 2,465GHz 100mW -100dBm 12 7000m
The XBee DigiMesh modules share the hardware module with the XBee-802.15.4. So it is possible to change the firmware of this
kind of modules from one to another and vice versa. For this reason, the characteristics relating to the hardware are the same,
changing those related with the protocol used.
The XBee DigiMesh modules are based on the standard IEEE 802.15.4 that supports functionalities enabling mesh topology use.
DigiMesh 900MHz
Frequency Tx Power Sensitivity Channels Distance
902-928MHz 50mW -100dBm 12 10km
The XBee DigiMesh modules share the hardware module with the XBee-900. So it is possible to change the firmware of this
kind of modules from one to another and vice versa. For this reason, the characteristics relating to the hardware are the same,
changing those related with the protocol used.
