More About eRA Conenct2-Pi USB Dongles
These devices provide considerably greater range and less power consumption than similar Wi-Fi or Bluetooth dongles operating in the overcrowded 2.4GHz bands. Frequency, bandwidth, power output and data rate can (optionally) be configured to allow multiple devices to communicate free from interference from each other and any other RF devices.
Host devices can send and receive (half duplex) up to 180 Bytes of data per packet that will be seamlessly delivered and presented to other hosts within range. There is no need for any complicated ‘bit balancing’ or elaborate coding schemes. Easy Data In and Data Out!
Applications: RF Communications, Wireless, Sensing & Instrumentation.
