FAQ
Q: Does this transceiver support mesh networking?
A: Yes. Mesh operation is supported when the appropriate mesh configuration is selected.
Q: Can it transmit video and control data simultaneously?
A: Yes. It supports bidirectional IP video, telemetry, and control data transmission, subject to available bandwidth and network conditions.
Q: What is the maximum transmission distance?
A: The stated air-to-ground line-of-sight range is up to 22 km. Actual performance depends on antenna selection, installation height, interference, terrain, and local conditions.
Q: Can I connect an IP camera?
A: Yes. Compatible IP Ethernet cameras and other IP devices can connect through the Ethernet interface. Analog or HDMI video sources require a suitable encoder.
Q: Are higher-power versions available?
A: Optional higher-power configurations may be available. Please confirm power, frequency, antenna, and regulatory requirements with us before purchase.
Important Notes
Specifications and available configurations may vary by order. Confirm the frequency band, networking mode, interface version, RF power, antennas, and power supply before ordering. Use only frequencies and transmission power authorized in your operating region.
