nRF24AP2-USB Product Specification

Product overview

ANT is a demonstrably superior Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) RF protocol for almost all practical ultra-

low power networking applications – from simple point-to-point links to complex networks. Embedded in

nRF24AP2 devices, it is paired up with Nordic Semiconductor's market leading 2.4 GHz radio technology.

The combination gives you a high performance-, ultra-low-power network connectivity to applications.

The nRF24AP2-USB, with its USB v2.0 compatible serial interface, is made specifically to act as a bridge

between an ANT wireless network and backbone infrastructure. Backbone infrastructure can be advanced

user interfaces, storage on a computer or other USB enabled equipment.

Figure 1. on page 7 shows a network in which a network node with nRF24AP2-USB embedded, communi-

cates with up to eight ANT nodes. An example might be a computer collecting data from a hub (a watch) in

a portable ANT sensor network containing several sensors (like heart rate-, speed and distance sensors).

The 8-channel nRF24AP2-USB node can of course also set up ANT channels with other nodes (gym

equipment, for instance). The information collected though nRF24AP2-USB can then be used either locally

or shared with others over local networks or internet.
