Standalone Long Range ZigBee Router using CC2530+CC2592

CC2530+CC2592 Long Range ZigBee Router

Mod of cod.m's Zigbee Long Range Router based on EByte's E18-MS1PA2-PCB sporting an CC2530 combined with an CC2592 PA/LNA for range extension. Fits in the USB port of an Ubiquiti UniFi UAP-AC-PRO (using USB only for power).

The corresponding eagle library for the EByte modules, including 3D models, can be found here: https://github.com/codm/eagle-libraries

You can buy a ready built router, including external antenna, 3D printed case and power supply at our webshop: CC2530-CC2592 Long Range ZigBee Router

Firmware

Thanks to https://ptvo.info and his configurable ZigBee Firmware, we've built our own version of the firmware - based on Z-Stack 1.2 - to make use of the onboard LED.

See zigbee2mqtt's FAQ for more info on how to use ZigBee routers and expand your current ZigBee mesh: https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/information/FAQ.html#i-read-that-zigbee2mqtt-has-a-limit-of-20-devices-is-this-true

Upgrading

You can flash the module with a another/new firmware using an CC-Debugger from TI, which is also used for the common CC2531-USB-Sticks. The pin header on the top has the same layout.
