XBee ZigBee 1.25 mW Wire Antenna (XB24-Z7WIT-004)

The (XB24-Z7WIT-004) modules are part of the XBee ZB family which provides ZigBee level interoperability with ZigBee devices from other vendors. This hardware is only compatible with other ZB XBee modules; it is not compatible with the XBee 802.15.4.

How else do the ZB XBee modules differ from 802.15.4 ZB?

• Is compatible only with ZB family
• Sold only in the popular wire antenna format. 802.15.4 is offered with wire antenna or chip antenna
• Slightly longer communication distance: 400 feet and up to two miles line of sight for the 1.25 mW and 60 mW modules respectively
• Maximum baud rate is higher at up to 1 Mbps
• Slightly lower power consumption than 802.15.4
• Two less A/D I/Os and two more digital I/Os than 802.15.4

The most common factor in determining whether to use ZB is the potential need to tie-in with other ZigBee-compatible networks. If this is not a requirement, 802.15.4 may be perfectly suitable for your project. Still having trouble deciding whether to use 802.15.4 or ZB? Take a look at the XBee Comparison Chart.
Because the XBee modules have 2 mm pin spacing, we recommend one of our adapter boards for each module. Our adapter boards provide several advantages to the XBee modules such breadboard-friendly standard 0.1 inch pin spacing, mounting holes, and easy-to-solder connections. Even if you are communicating point-to-point without a PC, we still recommend that you always have at least one XBee USB Adapter Board (#2113421) so you can easily configure and test each XBee module prior to putting it in a point-to-point application.
