D17XX IP Mesh Transceiver Card
COFDM– Video, Audio, Telemetry and IP Products
January 2016 Data Sheet
The most important thing we build is trust
The D17XX is a single card IP Mesh transceiver with dual receive diversity.
Several D17XX transceivers can be used to generate a fluid self forming, self healing mesh containing up
to sixteen nodes. The D17XX transceivers within the mesh exchange data on a single frequency, simpli-
fying frequency management. The entire mesh system occupies just 2.5MHz of bandwidth (3.0, 3.5, 5.0
and 6.0MHz also available). The D17XX transceivers employ a unique COFDM modulation scheme and
therefore offer excellent RF penetration and performance in the presence of multipath.
The D17XX transceivers can provide up to 8.8Mb/s of IP data (data rate depends on mode, number of
nodes and range between nodes). This available bit-rate can be used to exchange IP data traffic be-
tween nodes.
The highly flexible mesh topology means that data can be exchanged between nodes in a point-to-
point or multi-point fashion; range can be extended by using nodes as repeaters. The self-forming,
self-healing mesh architecture makes the D17XX transceiver ideal for use in mobile surveillance ap-
plications, command and control applications, or advanced robotics.
The D17XX can be connected to third party composite or PTZ cameras using the AVI option. Two
PTZ control channels are available to control PTZ cameras. Alternatively third party IP cameras can
also be directly connected to the D17XX.
Security of the entire mesh network can be ensured by the use of the optional AES128 or AES256
encryption.
Control of the deployed mesh is achieved using the inbuilt web browser or comprehensive Mission
Commander PC application.
Equipped with Ethernet and serial control interfaces, the D17XX is easy to integrate into a larger system.
The key design criteria for this solution were low power consumption, small size, and ease of integration.
