XBee modules leverage multiple types of wireless protocols which are suitable for all sorts of different network architectures. Open Standards include ZigBee, 802.15.4, and Wi-Fi. Digi has also developed a proprietary protocol called DigiMesh, a widely deployed mesh networking protocol that reduces some of the complexity of the ZigBee protocol.
Deployment: XBee modules are available in a wide variety of RF frequencies used around the world. Using a single XBee design, developers can support frequencies including: 2.4 GHz | 902 - 928 MHz | 865 - 868 MHz
