Casambi Long Range (LR) designated CBU products (e.g. CBU-TED-LR) and Ecosystem partner products that state they are LR capable, use the latest Casambi wireless module.

- Radio transmission power (Default): +8dBm (Non-LR = +4dBm)
- Supports Bluetooth 5 (Non-LR = Bluetooth 4)
- 4x RAM & 2x Flash memory compared to non-LR
