Description
Utilising proprietary LPRS easyRadio technology operating in the 434MHz Industrial Scientific & Medical (ISM) bands the Connect2Pi USB ‘dongle’ provides a simple wireless bridge between Raspberry Pi (Pi2Pi), a Raspberry Pi and a PC or any other device that supports USB serial communications.
These devices provide considerably greater range and less power consumption than similar WiFi 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.
