The DTC BluSDRâ„¢ Radio Family
DTC’s BluSDR™ wireless communication and datalink solutions deliver the range, throughput and robustness required for even the most demanding of uncrewed systems and robotics applications. Utilizing our game-changing MeshUltra™ family of COFDM IP Mesh waveforms, these advanced software-defined radios offer versatile capabilities in SWaP-optimized packages.
Each MeshUltra waveform is designed for a specific application, such as drone swarms or low-latency point-to-point communications, and all waveforms are interchangeable across all BluSDR radios. Our communications technology is ideal for any scale, from two-radio links all the way up to 144-node self-forming and self-healing mesh networks.
The BluSDR family offers a wide range of options, including a variety of power levels, and form factors including low-SWaP OEM modules and ruggedized MIL-spec units. Frequency options span from 340MHz to 6GHz as well as combinations for tri-band capable products. Each band typically has 500MHz of frequency to choose from, offering one of the widest ranges in the industry. Encryption is available up to AES-256, including with US FIPS 140-2 accreditation.
