Holybro XBP9X Radio can be configured easily using Digi’s free XCTU software or via Digi’s simplified AT or API command sets. The Radios provide secure, reliable delivery of critical data between devices with 256-bit AES encryption. With RF line-of-sight ranging up to 65 miles* and strong interference blocking capabilty, the Radios are ideal for those applications requiring the combination of range, data redundancy and data reliability.
