Digi XBee-PRO 900HP embedded modules provide best-in-class range wireless connectivity to devices. They take advantage of the DigiMesh® networking protocol, featuring dense network operation and support for sleeping routers, and are also available in a proprietary point-to-multipoint configuration. Supporting RF line-of-sight ranges up to 28 miles (with high-gain antennas), and data rates of up to 200 Kbps, these modules are ideal for extended-range applications requiring increased data throughput.
The Digi XBee-PRO 900HP requires no programming and can be configured easily using Digi’s free XCTU software or via a simplified AT command set. Digi XBee modules are pre-certified for use in multiple countries, further reducing development costs and time to market.
Digi XBee® modules are easy to use, share a common hardware footprint and are available in a variety of different protocols, enabling users to substitute one Digi XBee for another with minimal development time and risk.
You can build networks up to 128 nodes using these XBee devices. For larger networks of up to 1,000 or more nodes, Digi International offers RF optimization services to assist with proper network configuration. For more information network configuration, contact Digi Technical Support.

Digi XBee-PRO® 900HP
This is the US/Canada version. To use this device, customers are advised to have development experience using a compatible development kit. Please note that NCD engineers have not tested the 28-Mile range of this device. We have tested this device at 2 Miles with excellent results using smaller antennas than what would be required to achieve the 28-Mile range achieved by the manufacturer. All range tests are conducted in clear line-of-sight installations. It is not possible for us to accurately predict range prior to purchase. We cannot predict range inside buildings, using google map images, or predict interference that may be present at your location that would prohibit proper operation.
