XBee Cellular LTE Cat 1 embedded modems at Mouser

Digi XBee Cellular LTE Cat 1 embedded modems are low-power embedded modems that operate at 3.3V and offer sleep and deep-sleep modes optimised for solar and/or battery-powered applications. Transmitting embedded serial data via TCP, UDP or SMS over the cellular network, the devices offer flexible communication options, including a simple transparent serial mode and an API mode with structured frames for more advanced design requirements. A bundled data plan is available, with the modem shipping fully pre-provisioned and ready to communicate over the cellular network. The modems utilise Digi's TrustFence security features, which include Secure Boot, encrypted security keys, secure JTAG, and SSL/TLS 1.2 cryptographic protocols. All security and feature updates are performed using over-the-air (OTA) firmware for added manageability and convenience.

All Digi XBee products share the same footprint and software interface, so the Digi XBee Cellular modems offer a cost-effective, longer-range option with a standardised footprint that allows designers to easily upgrade to exciting new technologies including LTE CAT M1 and the upcoming LTE CAT NB1. Customers can seamlessly transition from existing Digit XBee modems to this new modem with only minor software adjustments, configuring and editing data either locally through Digi's XCTU software or remotely using the Digi Remote Manager interface.

Mouser is also stocking the Digi XBee Cellular LTE Cat 1 development kit, which includes the embedded modem, development board, an activated Verizon SIM card, and 6 months of free cellular data service to allow for immediate development. The Digi XBee Cellular embedded modems are suitable for remote equipment control, environmental monitoring, intelligent lighting systems, digital signage, and oil and gas sensors.
