SparkFun Digi XBee® Cellular Kit

The SparkFun Digi XBee® Cellular Kit is your ticket to remote sensing adventures. Unbox this treasure trove of tools and watch your imagination take flight. Included with this kit, you will find everything you need to get started using Digi XBee Cellular and the Qwiic Connect System.

At the heart of the kit lies the SparkFun Digi XBee® Development Board, a board that has been designed to help you quickly and easily prototype low-power cellular IoT applications using the new Digi XBee 3 Low-Power LTE-M/NB-IoT or any existing through-hole Digi Xbee module. Unleash the potential to monitor conditions far beyond your WiFi bubble, whether it's the humidity in your remote greenhouse or the temperature fluctuations in your beehive. The included SparkFun Humidity Sensor Breakout, conveniently connected with a Qwiic cable, sends data in real-time.

To simplify your journey, the kit comes equipped with a Digi XBee 3 Global LTE-M/NB-IoT cellular module programmed for effortless LTE-M operation. No need for fiddling with settings or hunting for compatible software. Plus, the Hologram eUICC SIM Card eliminates the traditional SIM fuss, letting you activate your network connection in a flash.

But the adventure doesn't stop there. Capture robust cellular signals across a wide range of frequencies with the included LTE Wide Band Flex Antenna. And for moments when you need to connect with other devices in close proximity, a PCB Antenna for 2.4GHz communication and a GPS/GNSS antenna are both at your disposal.

Whether you're a seasoned IoT enthusiast or a curious explorer dipping your toes into the world of low-power cellular, the SparkFun Digi XBee® Cellular Kit provides the perfect launchpad. Navigate remote landscapes, gather priceless data, and unlock the potential of wireless connectivity.

The SparkFun Qwiic Connect System is an ecosystem of I²C sensors, actuators, shields and cables that make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This reduces the amount of required PCB space, and polarized connections mean you can’t hook it up wrong.
