Features & Benefits
- Converts the communication between Bluetooth Low Energy(BLE) and RS-485/RS-232 interfaces.
- BLE Certification: IFD8540 is Bluetooth 5.0 certified and utilizes 2.4GHz Frequency-hopping Spread Spectrum(FHSS) technology, providing higher transmission speed and wider signal coverage compared with conventional Bluetooth devices. It also adopts AES-CCM 128-bit encryption with higher security level.
- BLE Protocol: in addition to common GATT(Generic Attribute Profile) protocol supported by most mobile devices, IFD8540 also offers two kinds of mesh networks to maximize the flexibility in planning an IIoT application.
– SIG Mesh: standard Bluetooth mesh protocol with 15Kbps speed within 50m distance
– Instaburst Mesh: boost mesh mode. Instaburst mode offers 160Kbps speed within 10m distance
– GATT: standard Bluetooth protocol which is backward compatible to Bluetooth devices of older versions. It offers up to 2Mbps speed within 50m distance in a point-to-point scenario. Users can use Delta’s Android App (Delta SmartViewer) to perform the functionality available in GATT mode.
- Configurable by software or hardware switches for basic parameters such as station ID, BLE group ID, RS-485 baud rate and factory default. Saves configuration time in manufacturing and project commissioning process.
- Built in communication indicators(BLE, COM) for easier troubleshooting
- Full isolation between communication and power circuits to achieve higher noise immunity
Applications
- Data collection and monitoring applications in logistics, building automation, HVAC, and more
