Category: Wired Wireless

This low power transceiver module is based on the Maxim MAX485 IC to allow serial communication over very long cable runs (up 4000 feet / 1200 meters). Serial data can be transmitted in both directions (half duplex) at a data rate up to 2.5Mbps. The modules operate from a standard 5V power...

Worked perfectly for adding long-distance communication to my Arduino setup—the 4000-foot range is no joke. I had it talking to a sensor in the backyard with zero errors. Solid little module for the price.

Finally got my project talking over a hundred feet of cable without any signal loss, and the MAX485 handles bidirectional data smoothly. The 4000-foot range spec is a big relief for future expansion.

Used this to link an Arduino to a sensor 200 feet away in my workshop, and it's been rock solid with no data corruption. The differential signaling really does handle long cable runs perfectly.
