Product Overview
The SparkFun Digi XBee® Development Board is designed to help you quickly and easily prototype low-power cellular IoT applications using the new Digi XBee 3 Low-Power LTE-M/NB-IoT, Digi XBee RR. With the SparkFun Digi XBee® Development Board, you will be able to build wireless applications using Digi XBee modules, including LTE cellular, Zigbee, LoRaWAN, 900/868MHz, DigiMesh, and any other through-hole Digi XBee module. This board breaks out all the functionality of your XBee module with support for the power requirements of cellular modules and a full design review from Digi Engineering.
The XBee Development Board makes it possible to build sensor networks for remote monitoring, control devices wirelessly from your PC, prototype real-time data acquisition systems, and more! This is a "kitchen sink" development board that gives you access to the pin functionality of the XBee, includes two USB-C connectors for UART communication and firmware updates, a Qwiic connector for I2C capable sensors and peripherals, as well as Reset and D0 buttons and the ability to update firmware on the XBees that have cellular modules. There's also a JST port for a battery to allow your project to be more on the go and stay on the go with its battery charging capabilities.
Digi Remote Manager® allows users to easily configure and control devices from a central platform. Built-in Digi TrustFence® security, identity, and data privacy features use multiple layers of control to protect against new and evolving cyber threats. Standard XBee API frames and AT commands, MicroPython, and Digi XBee Studio simplify setup, configuration, testing and adding or changing functionality.
