RM024 Series
2.4 GHz ISM-Band Multipoint Wireless Modules
INDUSTRY-LEADING FLEXIBILITY AND PERFORMANCE IN M2M
Laird’s RM024 series modules are built on the core technology and RF expertise of
Lairds seven generations of Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) devices.
An improved RF frontend and a long list of configurable options yields the best of
both worlds: very low power consumption and extremely long range. The RM024
excels in serial cable replacement scenarios, signage, agricultural applications and
more. Available in 125 mW (FCC) or 10 mW (CE) variants, the RM024 provides the most reliable wireless link in
the ISM band with several inbuilt mechanisms to reject interference, boost throughput, and achieve
unparalleled range.
UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE
IN EXTREME ENVIRONMENTS
POWERFUL API FOR A MORE
INTELLIGENT NETWORK
PERSONAL SUPPORT FROM
DESIGN TO MANUFACTURE
In difficult environments with extreme
demands, no ISM-band RF module performs
like the RM024. Built for industrial
temperatures from -40°C to 85°C (-40°F to
185°F), the RM024 is perfect for any
environment. Interference avoidance
mechanisms bring reliability to uncertain
deployments. The broad range of output
power options and sleep modes allows you
to opt for high power and long range (up to
4km) or short range and low power. The
modules’ improved RF frontend achieves an
RF data stream of up to 500 kbps.
The RM024’s upgradeable firmware and
programmable API allow the device to be
customized for a broad range of use cases,
and advanced functionality via AT
commands. Using the Laird Configuration
Utility for programming and testing, the
RM024 may be placed into a wide variety of
configurable modes. The RM024’s
architecture allows for large networks of up
to 16 million nodes. The RM024’s link is
robust, but much simpler than technologies
like Zigbee. The RM024 offers an intelligent
network that excels even in the presence of
co-located systems.
Laird’s support team is always standing by
to provide integration support, analysis,
and troubleshooting for all currently
supported hardware. Working on-site with
Laird engineers in the US, Europe, and Asia,
Connectivity Solutions Support is your
personal bridge to all of Laird’s software,
experience, and expertise. Laird guarantees
a fast response and is dedicated to seeing
your product through design to
manufacturing. Laird’s online support
center serves as an archive of many
common questions, as well as hundreds of
support documents and software files.
