3.4. XBee-PRO 868 vs XBee 868LP
The new XBee 868LP module supports some changes:
• The new XBee 868LP operates between 863 and 870 MHz, making it deployable in several regions throughout the world
including approved European countries and India by utilizing a software selectable channel masking feature.
• The XBee 868LP is also the industry’s rst RF module using 868 MHz and surrounding frequencies for LBT + AFA (Listen
Before Talk and Adaptive Frequency Agility). This virtually eliminates interference by listening to the radio environment
before any transmission starts, and automatically shifting to a new channel when interference is detected. This patent-
pending frequency scan occurs automatically and in a matter of microseconds so as not to impact performance.

• The new XBee-PRO 900HP uses greater power transmission compared to the old version. Thus, the ranges achieved by
these new modules are larger than before.
• The XBee-PRO 900HP modules are certied for use in multiple countries: Brazil, Australia, US. Through the new channel
selection it is possible to enable/disable the preferred frequency channels within the 902-928 MHz band.
• The power consumption has been improved compared to the old modules. Better ranges have been achieved with almost
the same TX power. On the other hand, RX power consumption has been reduced.

- LE910-NAG (US / Canada): FCC, IC, PTCRB, AT&T Approved
- LE910-AU V2 (Australia): RCM, Telstra Approved
• The GPS module also makes possible perform geolocation services using NMEA sentences oering information such as
latitude, longitude, altitude and speed what makes it perfect to perform tracking applications.
• The new 4G module oers the maximum performance of the 4G network as it uses two dierent antennas (normal +
diversity) for RX (MIMO DL 2x2) choosing the best received signal at any time and getting a maximum download speed of
100 Mbps.

6. How to use Meshlium
6.1. Power supply
Meshlium needs a 220 V power connection. The device must be powered with the power source provided by Libelium.
How to connect Meshlium to 220 V (110 V compatible):
• 1. Unscrew the Ethernet connector cap in Meshlium.
• 2. Join the end that has the IP65 protection of the Ethernet cable to the connector and screw the cap on to x it.
• 3. Connect the free end of the cable to the PoE injector input marked as PoE. As explained in the section “Before using
Meshlium”, make sure that the PoE is indoors.
• 4. Take the supplied power adapter and plug it into the corresponding PoE injector connector, labeled as DC.
• 5. Plug the other end of the adapter into the 220 V socket and your Meshlium is now ready to operate.
Note: For equipment powered by an electric outlet, a power outlet must be installed near the equipment, and it must be easily
accessible.

How to connect Meshlium in order to get access by the Ethernet interface:
• 1. Connect the network crossover cable (it has an identifying label) included in the box to the PoE injector input marked
LAN and to the network socket of your PC as shown in the diagram.
(*) See the “Accessing Meshlium” section in order to see how to get access via wireless.

You can also carry out this connection through a switch (not supplied with Meshlium):
• 1. Connect the Ethernet cable (not the crossover) to the PoE input marked LAN and to one of the switch inputs.
• 2. Connect another Ethernet cable to another one of the switch inputs and the opposite end to the network socket of your PC.
(*) See the “Accessing Meshlium” section in order to see how to get access via wireless.

6.2. External SIM socket
The External SIM socket is composed of 2 connectors:
• micro-SIM card
• micro-USB (type B)

The micro-SIM card connector allows the user to connect the SIM card. You can ask your Mobile Network Operator for a micro-
SIM card. It is better to use a normal micro-SIM card, not a card which can be broken into a nano-SIM card.
The micro-SIM card connector has a push-push mechanism, so it is really easy to remove the card using one nail or a small tool.
To insert the SIM, press until a click is heard. To release the card, press until a click is heard and the spring will push the card free.

It is very important to turn o Meshlium in a secure way before inserting a micro-SIM card, or removing an existing SIM card. The
user can damage the device if this operation is done with the device on.
Make sure the External SIM socket is closed with its protection cap tightly screwed before an outdoors deployment.
The operation with the micro-USB socket is just the same than with a normal USB socket. A USB OTG cable can be used to plug
in standard A USB connector (like pendrives).
Take into account that the External SIM socket has a limited resistance so please be gentle and push with care.
6.3. How to install the antennas
Every antenna for each technology has a dened position in which it has to be installed. The dierent positions are:
