| Digi Adds Small ZigBee-to-IP Gateway for Drop-in Networking Applications | | 2008-02-18 23:50:00 | | Digi International (NASDAQ:DGII) today introduced the ConnectPort X2, a wireless gateway about the size of a deck of cards that links ZigBee/802.15.4 device networks with IP networks over Wi-Fi or Ethernet connections. The ConnectPort X2 expands Digi's Drop-in Networking solutions, a combination of hardware components and software tools for network-enabling commercial grade devices where wired infrastructure does not exist or does not satisfy customer needs. The single function ConnectPort X2 is | | By: Brand Mantra | | |
| | ZigBee PRO | | 2007-10-03 10:14:00 | | A new feature set has been announced by The ZigBee® Alliance called ZigBee PRO to maximizes all the capabilities of ZigBee and facilitates ease-of-use and advanced support for larger networks.The newly released Feature Sets are designed to inter-operate with each other, ensuring long-term use and stability. Highlights of the expanded ZigBee PRO Feature Set include:Network Scalability – Improved support for larger networks offering more management, flexibility, performance choicesFragmentation – New ability to divide longer messages and enable interaction with other protocols and systemsFrequency Agility – Networks dynamically change channels should interference occurAutomated Device Address Management – Optimized for large networks with added network management and configuration toolsGroup Addressing – Offers additional traffic optimization needed for large networksWireless Commissioning – Enhanced with secure wireless commissioning capabilitiesCentralized Data Collection – Tuned specifically to optimize information flow in large networksWith the addition of these additional features to the ZigBee specification, the Alliance is shifting its attention to development efforts facilitating the deployment of the technology for energy management and efficiency, specifically in areas like public application profiles for advance metering infrastructure (AMI). Public application profiles enable end-to-end, multi-vendor interoperable solutions in markets such as AMI, home automation, commercial building automation and telecommunications. | | By: Science & Technology Today | | |
| | ZigBee for Mobile Device | | 2007-04-26 14:54:00 | | According to the latest release from ZigBee® Alliance, a new initiative has been launched to extend Zigbee capability to Zigbee to mobile phone users. This would allow services to secure mobile payment, information delivery, health care monitoring, peer-to-peer small data sharing and other location based services and features.ZigBee mobile devices will either have embedded ZigBee technology or will be using a ZigBee SIM card. These devices act as a mobile terminal and/or as a sensor control device anywhere there is a ZigBee network or ZigBee access point. Potential applications currently in development include:Secure Mobile Payments: Mobile users pay for goods and services by waving handset in front of scanner and entering a pin numberInformation Delivery: Users receive news, downloads (messages, ring tones, images, etc.), advertisements from network operators or localized information such as weather, traffic updates and movie show times based on their current location or neighborhood | | By: Science & Technology Today | | |
