Maximum no of End Device Xbee that can join network started by Coordinator.Xbee

Question

I need to know for Xbee Series 2 as well as for Xbee Series 1.

If its less, how can i scale it up for up-to 100 end devices per coordinator

Answer 1

For the 802.15.4 product, there is no limitation implemented with in the Code for the total number of end devices. So in this case it is a function of how many 16 bit addresses that can be assigned out.

As for the Zigbee product, depending on the specific version of the hardware and firmware you are using, a parent node such as a Coordinator or router can each support up to 10 - 12 End device children.

In series 2 how can i overcome this limit.

You can't.  If you need more sleeping end devices, you have to add more parent routers to your network.  That is your only option.
