HOBOnet® Wireless Sensor Network

  

RXW Repeater (RXW-RPTR-B-xxx) Manual 

24502-B 

The RXW Repeater is designed to work with the HOBOnet Wireless Sensor Network in which data 

is transmitted wirelessly from sensor motes across the network to the station and then uploaded 

to HOBOlink® web-based software. The repeater is ideal when there is an obstruction between 

motes and the station or for extending the transmission range of motes in the network. With 

HOBOlink, you can monitor the network, view graphs, set up alarms, download data, and more.
