RC2400HP-ZNM

Overview

The RC2400HP-ZNM is a high-power RF transceiver module from Radiocrafts AS, designed for IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee PRO applications. It operates in the 2400-2483 MHz frequency band with 16 channels. The module features a 100 mW (20 dBm) output power option and utilizes the CC2530 IC. It supports UART serial interfaces and accepts a supply voltage of 2.7V to 3.6V. The component is available in a castellation surface-mount package without an included antenna.

Feature Summary

• Complete ZNM network module with integrated radio protocol
• High-power 100 mW (20 dBm) transmission capability
• Pin-compatible design within the ZNM series

Applications

• Wireless star networks
• Mesh networks
• ZigBee PRO applications
• IEEE 802.15.4 standard implementations

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm pin compatibility and power options. Ensure the selected variant matches the required UART interface configuration. Confirm that the castellation package type aligns with the target PCB footprint. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high transmit power is required for extended range or obstacle penetration. The pin-compatible nature allows for easy upgrades from low-power variants within the same series. Consider the UART interface requirements for system integration. Verify voltage supply constraints against the 2.7V to 3.6V operating range.

Part Context

This module belongs to the RC2400/RC2400HP series, which are compact surface-mounted RF transceivers. The HP designation indicates the high-power variant compared to the standard RC2400. These modules are part of the ZNM family, optimized for wireless networking protocols.

Replacement Considerations

The standard RC2400-ZNM is a pin-compatible low-power alternative within the same series. Other ZNM series modules may offer different power levels or interface configurations while maintaining physical compatibility.
