End-of-Life (EOL)

Please note that this product is now End-of-Life (EOL), and is no longer available for sale through Ettus Research, and is not recommended for use in new designs or in new projects.

Overview

The XCVR2450 is a high-performance transceiver intended for operation 2.4 GHz and 5.9 GHz range. Filtering on the XCVR2450 provides exceptional selectivity and dynamic range in the intended bands of operation. The typical power output of the XCVR2450 is 100 mW. Example applications include public safety, UNII, ISM, Japanese wireless and UWB development platforms.

The XCVR2450 is a half-duplex transceiver. For full-duplex operation in the 2.4 GHZ range, see the SBX.

The XCVR2450 daughterboard has been revised to improve its specifications and is no longer compatible with the USRP1. For applications requiring an XCVR2450 daughterboard to be used exclusively with the USRP1, please purchase the XCVR2450-U1.

Not Recommended for New Designs. Please consider the CBX, SBX or UBX instead.

Proper Care and Handling

All Ettus Research products are individually tested before shipment. The XCVR2450 is guaranteed to be functional at the time it is received by the customer. Improper use or handling of the XCVR2450 can easily cause the device to become non-functional. Listed below are some examples of actions which can prevent damage to the unit:

  • Never allow metal objects to touch the circuit board while powered.
  • Always properly terminate the transmit port with an antenna or 50Ω load.
  • Always handle the board with proper anti-static methods.
  • Never allow the board to directly or indirectly come into contact with any voltage spikes.
  • Never allow any water, or condensing moisture, to come into contact with the boards.
  • Always use caution with FPGA, firmware, or software modifications.
