AeroComm Selects Digi Connect ME to Add Ethernet Connectivity to New Plug-and-Play RF Transceivers.


LENEXA, Kan. -- AeroComm Inc., global supplier of complete wireless solutions for industrial and commercial OEMs, announces the ConnexNet line of Ethernet-enabled transceivers. The rugged plug-and-play units merge AeroComm's sophisticated RF protocol with the Digi Connect(R) ME(R) embedded device server to facilitate networking virtually around the world.

ConnexNet provides a complete hardware and software solution for adding wireless network connectivity to any serial-based application. The transceiver serves as a conduit between the user and multiple destination devices via a local network or Internet connection. ConnexNet integrates a fully developed TCP/IP TCP/IP

 -- all of the software controls communicate directly to the Ethernet device, thus greatly improving system latency. Additionally, while most products available today allow only Ethernet-to-serial connectivity, ConnexNet will support a wireless Ethernet bridge, allowing separate networks to communicate with one another.

"Today's wireless products need synergy with OEM communication interfaces," said Mike Varady, co-founder and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.

"Digi Connect ME was selected by AeroComm's development team for its comprehensive protocols, ease of integration and overall performance advantages over other Ethernet modules," said Larry Kraft, Digi International's VP of North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere.  sales and marketing. "Our goal is to provide solutions that help innovators like AeroComm and their customers optimize the quickest time to market."

ConnexNet transceivers provide ultimate range at 900 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc.  with up to 1 watt of scalable output power offered in either Server/Client or Peer-to-peer protocols. With multiple protocols, programmable data rates and unmatched product breadth, AeroComm offers extreme flexibility to an OEM's wireless design.

Pricing for the ConnexNet CN4490-1000 (Server/Client) and CN4790-1000 (Peer-to-peer) starts at $199 each. Starter Packs, which feature one ConnexNet Ethernet device and one ConnexLink Serial device, will be available for $325 per system.
