Features:
Available for licence-exempt operation in the UK 173MHz bands, the TX1 & RX1 modules combine
effective screening with internal filtering to minimise spurious radiation and susceptibility thereby
ensuring EMC compliance. They are particularly suitable for one-to-one and multi-node wireless links
where longer ranges are required at low to moderate data rates. Applications include building security,
EPOS and inventory tracking, remote industrial process monitoring and data networks. Because of
their small size and low power consumption, both modules are ideal for use in battery-powered portable
applications such as hand-held terminals.

... The RX1 module is a single conversion NBFM superhet receiver capable of handling data rates 10kbps. It will operate from a supply of 2.7V to 12V and draws 12mA when receiving. A signal strength (RSSI) output with greater than 80dB of range is provided. The SIL style RX1 measures 48 x 17.5 x 5.5 mm excluding the pins. ...

... Note: The figure for 1.2kbps assumes that the receiver bandwidth has been suitably reduced by utilising an outboard audio filter/data slicer or similar arrangement. If the RX1 is used “as is” the range will be similar to that for 10kb/s. Radiometrix Ltd., TX1 & RX1 Data Sheet RF Input Level (dBm) Fig ...
