900Mhz / 868Mhz RF board for intel Edison

cstanton

 

This caught my eye over on Reddit, it's not often I see add-on boards for the intel Edison.

    Agreed, this is interesting.  Just need a quality antenna to wire up so that the receptor is in line of sight.  I am tempted in spite of my over-implemented home office.

     

    This product might give Intel a shot at creating a consumer niche, admittedly small and geeky (at least) at first.  Maybe some companion low-cost software products will help.  The ball is in their court!

    The line of sight may not be needed, Richard. I'm testing sub-1 GHz communication here in house and it beams trough walls and floors - with the PCB antenna.

    has sent me a pair of high quality antennas, and I ordered an antenna test set for these frequencies, so I'll be able soon to check how they improve the communication.

    But for in-house, the antenna on this explorer board will most likely do.
