This long-range SDR mesh radio is designed for wireless data communication where multiple devices need to communicate over extended distances.
It supports self-organizing mesh networking, multi-hop communication, and up to 256 network nodes, making it suitable for mobile, industrial, robotics, remote monitoring, and other wireless communication systems.
Unlike a simple point-to-point radio link, the mesh architecture allows network nodes to communicate with each other and forward data through multiple communication paths.

Multi-Node Mesh Networking
Each radio can operate as a network node.
Nodes can communicate directly when they are within wireless range. When a direct connection is not available, other nodes can forward data through the mesh network.
This multi-hop architecture can help extend communication coverage without requiring every node to maintain a direct connection with the main station.
The actual communication range depends on:
-
Operating frequency
-
RF output power
-
Antenna gain
-
Antenna installation height
-
Terrain and obstacles
-
Radio interference
-
Line-of-sight conditions
For long-range projects, we recommend testing the complete radio and antenna configuration in the actual operating environment.

Long-Range Communication
The maximum communication distance is highly dependent on the installation environment.
Open line-of-sight conditions, antenna height, antenna gain, RF output power, receiver sensitivity, and interference can significantly affect the actual communication range.
For long-range applications, we recommend confirming the frequency, antenna configuration, RF power, and network topology before ordering.
Sample testing can also be arranged for project evaluation.
