Datasheet

Packet radio with ready-to-go Arduino libraries

Uses the amateur or license-free ISM bands (https://adafru.it/mOE): 433MHz is ITU "Europe" license-free ISM or

ITU "American" amateur with limitations. 900MHz is license free ISM for ITU "Americas"

Use a simple wire antenna or spot for uFL or SMA radio connector

RFM69HCW in either 433 MHz or 868/915MHz

These are +20dBm FSK packet radios that have a lot of nice extras in them such as encryption and auto-retransmit.

They can go about 200-500 meters line-of-sight using simple wire antennas, probably up to 5Km with well-tuned

directional antennas, perfect line-of-sight, and settings tweakings

SX1231 based module with SPI interface

+13 to +20 dBm up to 100 mW Power Output Capability (power output selectable in software)

50mA (+13 dBm) to 150mA (+20dBm) current draw for transmissions, ~30mA during active radio listening.

The RFM69 radios have a range of approx. 500 meters line of sight with tuned uni-directional antennas.

Depending on obstructions, frequency, antenna and power output, you will get lower ranges -

especially

if you

are not line of sight.

Create multipoint networks with individual node addresses
