Digi XBee 3 Zigbee 3 RF Module
Easy-to-add connectivity in a compact, low-power, low-profile footprint
- At 13 mm x 19 mm, the new Digi XBee® 3 micro form factor allows for more compact and portable applications
- Digi XBee 3 is one module for all protocols including: Zigbee, 802.15.4, DigiMesh® and BLE, all configurable via Digi XBee Studio
- Eliminate the need for an external microcontroller and create smart end nodes using MicroPython
- Bluetooth® Low Energy for beaconing, connecting to Bluetooth sensors and local configuration using the Digi XBee Mobile app
- Intrinsic IoT security with Digi TrustFence®, a layered approach securing the edge device, through the gateway, into and out of the IoT

*Range figure estimates are based on free-air terrain with limited sources of interference. Actual range will vary based on transmitting power, orientation of transmitter and receiver, height of transmitting antenna, height of receiving antenna, weather conditions, interference sources in the area, and terrain between receiver and transmitter, including indoor and outdoor structures such as walls, trees, buildings, hills, and mountains.
