2. Introduction
This document outlines the hardware integration for the D1707-OEM + AP001973 IP Mesh
baseband transceiver module with dual receive diversity.
This document applies to units with FCC ID:XRF-NETNODEP41W.
Several modules can be used to generate a fluid self-forming, self-healing mesh containing
up to sixteen nodes. The module within the mesh exchange data on a single frequency,
simplifying frequency management. The entire mesh system occupies just 6 MHz of
bandwidth. The modules employ a unique COFDM modulation scheme and therefore offer
excellent RF penetration and performance in the presence of multipath.
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 this module ideal for use in mobile
surveillance applications, command and control applications or advanced robotics.
Security of the entire mesh network can be ensured by the use of the optional AES128 or
AES256 encryption.
Equipped with Ethernet and serial control interfaces, the module 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.
