产品概述
描述
The STSW-ST8500GH package provides the software ecosystem for ST’s G3-PLC hybrid PLC&RF connectivity technology evaluation, based on the ELVKST8500GH868, EVLKST8500GH915 kits that include all the functions required for plug-and-play communication networking.
The host controller application firmware example allows testing the PLC and RF communication exploiting the IPv6 layer interface of the ST8500 modem.
The G3-PLC hybrid PLC&RF communication stack has full flexibility to be configured in any of the available bandplans for both PLC (CEN-A, CEN-B or FCC) and RF (according to the RF Sub-GHz module selection).
Messages between two nodes in the PLC&RF hybrid network are sent over the best available medium: PLC or RF. The media selection for each link in the network is done automatically and adjusted dynamically, enabling highly efficient hybrid mesh networking.
The ST hybrid PLC&RF solution is based on open standards and enables seamless integration into existing G3-PLC networks and adoption in multiple applications and systems. For more information on the G3-PLC hybrid PLC&RF solution, please visit the G3-PLC Alliance website: https://www.g3-plc.com/what-is-g3-plc/g3-plc-hybrid-plcrf/
Note that at least two EVLKST8500GH868 or EVLKST8500GH915 kits must be ordered to test hybrid PLC&RF connectivity between two nodes.
