igBee = Telelink Communications Telelink Communications now has in stock outstanding quality ZigBee products from Telegesis (UK), joining Australia’s best range and best-supported professional wireless data gear from the world’s top manufacturers (including Circuit Design Inc, LPRS, Aerocomm and MK Consultants). ZigBee Development Kits are available: add wireless to your next design easily! Need help? Simply ask TeleLink! USB ZigBee too: ETRX1 and ETRX2 are available in a variety of formats to suit your specific application! The ETRX2 ZigBee module above is shown significantly larger than life size for clarity – actual size is same as this box: 37.75 x 20.45mm! 100mW LONG RANGE ZigBee – DUE THIS MONTH! JUST SOME ZigBee APPLICATIONS: • AMR – Automatic Meter Reading • Wireless Alarms and Security • Home/Building Automation • Wireless Sensor Networks • M2M Industrial Controls • Future ZigBee systems • PC Peripherals • IEEE 802.15.4 Systems • Item Tracking Telelink’s “Mr Wireless”, Jack Chomley, said that ZigBee is the future of low-power, short-range wireless data communication. “ZigBee is amazing. It runs on the smell of a microamp (no gas-fired turbine power stations needed here!) and our field tests with the Telegesis modules have proved them to be exceptional performers.” “We’ve had some fantastic results with the ETRX2 modules. These are the new model series to complement the current ETRX1 modules. They are also available as a Compact Flash version for PC interface. We have comprehensive support information, and new development kits will be released shortly. If you haven’t thought about ZigBee for your next project, you could miss the boat!” igBee Telelink Communications: Communications: your your specialist specialistwireless wirelesssupplier supplier Telelink Telelink Communications Communications PO BoxPO5457, Box 5457, NorthNorth Rockhampton, Rockhampton, Qld 4702 Qld 4702 01010101 Phone Phone (07) 4934 (07)0413 4934Fax 0413 (07) 4934 Fax0311 (07) [244934 hr message 0311service Web: (07) www.telelink.com.au 3830 0233] Web: www.telelink.com.au email: jack<at>telelink.com.au email: sales<at>telelink.com.au
