Mounting considerations
The XBee modules were designed to mount into a receptacle (socket) and therefore does not require
any soldering when mounting it to a board. The XBee PRO ZNet 2.5 Development Kits contain RS-232
and USB interface boards which use two 20-pin receptacles to receive modules.

The receptacles used on Digi development boards are manufactured by Century Interconnect.
Several other manufacturers provide comparable mounting solutions; however, Digi currently uses
the following receptacles:
•
Through-hole single-row receptacles -
•
Samtec P/N: MMS-110-01-L-SV (or equivalent)
•
Surface-mount double-row receptacles -
•
Century Interconnect P/N: CPRMSL20-D-0-1 (or equivalent)
