Mounting Considerations for the XBee/XBee-PRO DigiMesh 2.4
The XBee/XBee-PRO
®
DigiMesh 2.4 RF Module (through-hole) is designed to be mounted into a
receptacle (socket) and does not require any soldering when mounting it to a board. The
development kits contain RS-232 and USB interface boards that use two 20-pin receptacles to
receive modules.
XBee/XBee-PRO DigiMesh 2.4 RF module mounting to an RS-232 Interface Board.
The receptacles on Digi development boards are manufactured by Century Interconnect and
Samtec. Several other manufacturers provide comparable mounting solutions; However, Digi
currently uses the following receptacles:
• Through-hole single-row receptacles-Samtec P/N: MMS-110-01-L-SV (or equivalent)
• Surface-mount double-row receptacles-Century Interconnect P/N: CPRMSL20-D-0-1 (or
equivalent)
• Surface-mount single-row receptacles-Samtec P/N: SMM-110-02-SM-S
Note: Digi recommends that you print an outline of the module on the board to indicate the
correct orientation for mounting the module.
