The advances of personal computers and the proliferation of the Internet have laid the groundwork
for an era in which billions of networked electronic devices will work invisibly and jointly with each
other and with people. The introduction of wireless technology into this rapidly emerging world of
ubiquitous networking creates a new dimension of network collaboration that complements existing
wired infrastructures. Making the right network technology decisions is a key factor for market
success and defines the competitive edge of your products.
The Digi Connect ME family of secure embedded modules enables original equipment
manufacturers to keep pace with ever-evolving networking technology by delivering complete and
versatile embedded network connectivity solutions. They are cost-effective and easy to implement in
existing and new product designs, while powerful enough to meet future product performance
needs.
Based on a unique common platform design approach, the Digi Connect ME and
Digi Connect
®
Wi-ME embedded modules offer complete “drop-in” integration. This allows
you to build future-proof products based on a single design supporting secure wired 10/100Base-T
and 802.11b wireless Ethernet connectivity. The family of Digi Connect
®
embedded modules makes
all of this possible without the traditional complexities of hardware and software integration work,
and at a fraction of the time and cost required to create custom solutions.
Built on leading NetSilicon
®
32-bit NET+ARM technology, the Digi Connect ME embedded
modules also provide a seamless migration path to a fully integrated system-
on-chip solution. They combine true plug-and-play functionality with the
freedom and flexibility of complete software customization using the proven
NetSilicon NET+Works
®
development platform.
An integration kit and a complete development kit containing a development
board, documentation, sample code, cables and accessories are available for
evaluation and development use.
