AIR-EAGLE®XLT
900 MHz RF Transceiver
MODEL 441-6000-120VAC
DESCRIPTION
The AIR-EAGLE XLTRFTRANSCEIVER IS a dual I/O unitdesigned to
transmit and receive unique signals from an identical unit located up to
2500 feet away (longer ranges can be achieved using external antennas).
This modelcomes equipped with twocontact inputs andtwo 5-amp SPDT
relay outputs. This allows the user to not only transmit informationout but
receive a confirming signal back that the operation was performed. The
Air-Eagle XLT TRXis user-programmable for up to eight network
frequencies to allow multiple systems to operate simultaneously in the
same area and utilizes spread-spectrum technology and provides the
utmost security and reliability even in the noisiest RF environments.
