Butterfly Platform Zigbee Adapter Wing (BPW5004)
The Zigbee Adapter Wing is an 8 or 16 Bit Wing that provides Zigbee wireless communication capabilities when coupled with the Maxstream XBee and XBee Pro modules. The Wing is only an adapter and a XBee or XBee Pro must be purchased seperately.

Applications
- Out of the box no configuration wireless networking up to 1 mile (LOS) at 250Kbps with XBee-Pro.
- Mesh networking to extend Zigbee networks to distances greater than a mile.
- House wide mesh network.
Specifications
- The Zigbee Adapter Wing does not come populated with a XBee or XBee Pro adapter. Below is links to the XBee products:
Pinout
The Zigbee Adapter Wing can function as a 16 Bit or 8 Bit Wing. All critical signals are available on the first 8 Bits so if basic functionality is all that is required then just plug the first 8 Bits in. If advanced functionality is required then use all 16 Bits.
