MPU5
Advanced MANET Radio for Reliable Mobility
The MPU5 represents the pinnacle of Mobile Ad Hoc Networking (MANET) radios, enabling the establishment of secure, self-forming, and self-healing networks in any location. Utilizing 3×3 MIMO technology and powered by our Wave Relay MANET, it offers extended range and enhanced throughput in both line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight scenarios.
Each MPU5 within a Wave Relay network communicates with one another, creating a genuine peer-to-peer mobile network that is highly scalable, allowing devices to be added or removed without losing connectivity or necessitating reconfiguration. With a transmission power of up to 10W, the MPU5 can encode and stream live audio and video, including H.264 feeds at resolutions from 320×240 to Full HD 1080p30 and 720p60.
The MPU5 is a true Smart Radio, equipped with a custom Android-based operating system that enables the execution of third-party Android applications directly on the device. It can be easily installed on various unmanned systems platforms and connected directly to monitors,input devices,and sensors,creating a convenient GCS in the field.
Built to endure the harshest conditions, this rugged unit is IP68-rated, capable of withstanding extreme temperatures, water immersion, shock, and salt fog.
the MPU5 Radio is Blue UAS-certified.
