Introducing the MPU5: The Pinnacle of mobile Ad Hoc Networking
The MPU5 stands as the most sophisticated, adaptable, and effective Mobile Ad Hoc Networking (MANET) radio available today. it ensures highly reliable connectivity for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and other unmanned systems, enabling the establishment of secure, self-forming, and self-healing networks in any surroundings. Utilizing advanced 3×3 MIMO technology and powered by Persistent Systems’ Wave Relay® MANET, the MPU5 offers enhanced range and improved data throughput, whether in line-of-sight or beyond.
Seamless Connectivity and scalability
Each MPU5 device within a Wave Relay® network interacts with others, creating a genuine peer-to-peer mobile network that is highly scalable. This architecture allows for the effortless addition or removal of devices without compromising connectivity or necessitating reconfiguration. With a transmission power of up to 10W, the MPU5 can efficiently encode and stream live audio and video, supporting H.264 feeds at various resolutions, including 320×240, Full HD 1080p30, and 720p60.
Smart Radio Capabilities
The MPU5 is not just a radio; it is a Smart Radio equipped with a custom Android-based operating system. This feature enables users to run third-party Android applications directly on the device. It can be easily integrated with a variety of unmanned systems and connected to monitors, input devices, and sensors through versatile I/O ports, transforming it into a practical ground control station (GCS) or data processing unit in the field.
Durability in extreme Conditions
Engineered to endure the harshest environments, the rugged MPU5 unit boasts an IP68 rating, ensuring it can withstand extreme temperatures, water immersion, shocks, and salt fog. This resilience makes it an ideal choice for demanding operational scenarios.
Certification and Compliance
The MPU5 Radio has received Blue UAS certification, affirming it’s compliance with stringent operational standards.
