Overcoming RF Obstacles
A universal issue concerning any wireless system is how to
overcome a hostile RF environment. DataNet’s ZigBee RF
protocol has been designed for these hostile RF environments
that routinely exist onsite. ZigBee can overcome competing
wireless noise and other problems communicating the data.
Its mesh networking capabilities allows it to re-route signal
traffic around temporary or permanent physical obstacles,
radio-frequency interference, Repeater error or other such
failures.
The robustness of the system is such that there is no single
point of failure, ensuring data recovery from end units on the
network.
