Wired and wireless embedded modules

The advances of personal computers and the proliferation of the Internet have laid the groundwork for an era in which billions of networked electronic devices will work invisibly and jointly with each other and with people. The introduction of wireless technology into this rapidly emerging world of ubiquitous networking creates a new dimension of network collaboration that complements existing wired infrastructures. Digi International offers interchangeable secure wired and wireless embedded modules that have plug-and-play functionality. Along with comprehensive development tools it says this makes it easy to add embedded web-enabled wired and wireless network connectivity to products.

The Digi Connect ME family of secure embedded modules enables OEMs to keep pace with ever-evolving networking technology by delivering complete and versatile embedded network connectivity solutions. Cost-effective and easy to implement in existing and new product designs, says the manufacturer, they are also powerful to meet your future product performance needs.

Based on a unique common platform design approach, the Digi Connect ME and Wi-ME embedded modules offer a complete 'drop-in' integration. This allows one to build future-proof products based on a single design supporting wired 10/100Base-T and 802.11b wireless Ethernet connectivity. The embedded modules make all of this possible without the traditional complexities of hardware and software integration work, and at a fraction of the time and cost required to create custom solutions.

Built on leading NetSilicon 32-bit NET+ARM technology, the ME embedded modules also provide a seamless migration path to a fully integrated system-on-chip solution. They combine plug-and-play functionality with the freedom and flexibility of complete software customisation using the NetSilicon NET+Works development platform.

An integration kit and a complete development kit containing a development board, documentation, sample code, cables and accessories are available for evaluation and development use.
