Wifi Alternative

So recently, I have been talking to some customers about products with WIFI.

Here are a list of problems which they have encountered

1) The cost is high
2) Setup is complicated for End Customer
3) Power consumption is high

So what do we do if we dont use wifi? Is there any other altenatives? Of course there is! The answer is RF transceiver! They are relatively cheap when compared with WIFI solutions. Since there are no specific protocol to follow in the RF solution , it is very easy to setup. Most of all, the power consumption is low! So you can use it for mobile devices. :)

With these advantages, the RF solution is a good replacement for WiFi, but what if you want to use RF with Internet capabilities? Then you should consider using a Ethernet to RF gateway. This is a good solution since you don’t have to spend a lot of money on the hardware and also the user can sync the receiver and transmitter by just clicking a button.

Below shows the Ethernet to RF gateway. This is for connecting to the router.








The module below is the receiver which is the mobile device



Basically, the RF transceivers act as a wireless link for the internet connection.


This concludes our article for today. Thank you!
