1.0 INTRODUCTION
Rajant Corporation's (wraianttcgm) ME2 operates on IEEE 8021 lb/g wireless networking
standard to form a wireless mesh network. The network is mobile, self-integrating, self-
meshing, self-healing, fullvduplex and secure. An internal Li-Ion rechargeable standby battery
can power the unit when external power is unavailable The focus is on flexibility,
adaptability, and simplicity.
The BreadCrumb Wireless Network (BCWN) is intended for rapid deployment of a broadband
wireless network into a situation or ‘hot zone’i The network can be deployed as a stand-alone
wireless network, or bridged to another network (such as the lntemet) utilizing available reach-
back communication links (such as a DSL, cable, or satellite modem)
The ME2 provides high bandwidth applications to stream video, audio as well as data over
large distances. The network traffic can be secured by using different security features offered
by the BCWN. This makes the network optimal for tactical deployments as well as emergency
response situations since it offers robustness, stability and ease of setup in mission critical
actrvtties,
