California Eastern Laboratories (CEL) comprehensive line of ZigBee solutions includes ICs, modules, and software application packages. Designed for use in mesh, point-to-point, and point-to-multipoint systems, they provide a fully integrated, easy-to-use transceiver solution for IEEE 802.15.4 networks. CEL ZigBee modules and ICs are ideal for remote sensing, AMR/AMI, home and building automation, and security applications. 

CEL modules leverage industry-leading transceiver platforms from Freescale™, Ember™ and Texas Instruments™. They feature long range, low power consumption, and integrated antennas. CEL ZigBee-ready modules are also FCC, IC and CE certified, which greatly reduces your time to market, development costs, and risk.  

Please find below a selection guide to the various ZigBee modules from California Eastern Laboratories. Beneath that are links to the individual modules.

If you would like any assistance matching the ideal module for your application please contact us and one of our experienced engineers will be please to help.
