The latest Telegesis ETRX2 ZigBee modules have been selected by RS Components for inclusion in a new wireless and radio frequency products section being introduced to their catalogue

They are the first Telegesis products to be available from this industry leading catalogue The ETRX2 modules are low cost, low power transceivers that can be embedded in a wide range of devices to produce self-organising, self-healing wireless meshes

Incorporating the new single chip EM250 ZigBee system from Ember, they offer developers a simple means for bringing advanced wireless-enabled products to market quickly without the need for RF experience and expertise.

Telegesis provides an AT-style command line interface for the modules, which is similar in style to that used to control dial-up modems.

This interface makes it easy for those not expert in ZigBee wireless technology to develop applications without the need for complex software engineering.

"We are delighted to be included in the new RS Components catalogue," said the Telegesis managing director, Nicholas Gomersall.

"This new section reflects the vast potential for growth with new wireless network technologies such as ZigBee".

"RS recognises the growing significance of wireless technology in the industrial machine-to-machine marketplace," said Graham Johnson, UK Marketing Manager of RS: "We have carefully selected our new range of cutting-edge solutions from leaders in their field, and are very pleased to include the Telegesis ZigBee modules among them".

The modules are suitable for a wide range of innovative monitoring and control applications, including automatic meter reading, wireless alarms and security, home and building automation, industrial controls, item tracking and control of PC peripherals.
