Overview

Mini OEM thumbnail edited

The Mini Mesh Rider Radio is an advanced Manet router. The ISM Band Mini Mesh Rider Radio is an extension of the custom development of the radio platform sponsored by the Department of Defense. The ISM Band Mini  Mesh Rider Radio certifications for regulatory standards FCC, CE and IC are expected to be completed in Q2 2022.

 

The ISM Band Mini Mesh Rider Radio employs Doodle Labs' patented Mesh Rider® technology with state-of-the-art RF and networking capabilities that enable communication further, faster, and more reliably than any comparable solution on the market. For example, optimized video streaming carries crystal clear 4K video while simultaneously carrying low latency Command and Control data.

The interoperable Mesh Rider Radio platform is available in many frequency bands between 600 MHz and 6 GHz in Mini, , Embedded, Wearable and External form factors. This flexibility allows customers to use their industry specific frequency bands for deploying private wireless networks that encompasses all the use cases for human and machine collaboration.
