Owa21I - ZB - Zigbee Network Solution

Owa21I - ZB

The coordinator sends information to the server via CPRS with the future upgrade to UMTS. It routes the information to other type of networks via Ethernet, WiFi or GMS/CPRS networks.

  • Zigbee compatible Coordinator
  • Same architecture as the owa21 I-Eth including APIs for the management and configuration of the Zigbee compatible network.
  • 1 Serial Port RS232
  • Optional Ethernet port

Owa21I – ZB Router

The router sends the information from the sensor to the coordinator.

  • Zigbee compatible Router
  • Closed device providing routing for range extension in the Zigbee compatible network
  • Powered by DC
  • Optional Battery back up

Owa21I – ZB End Device: The sensor

  • Zigbee compatible End Device
  • Very low power consumption. Up to 12 years autonomy (Depending on Customers usage)
  • Pulses counter interface
  • 2 analogue inputs 2 digital inputs, 2 digital outputs, 1 movement sensor, 1 temperature sensor
