Hardware

Products

HCOM family

Our core communication family: one module for every node, ready for OEM integration.

HCOM100 communication module, TX/RX antenna connectors on a finned alloy housing

HCOM100

  • Frequency bands: 2.4 GHz or 5.1–5.9 GHz, one band at a time, selected in software.
  • User data rate: 100+ Mbit/s.
  • Network topologies: point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, relay and self-forming mesh, with a streamer mode for resilient downlink.

A ground-station version for outdoor use is also available. Contact us for options.

HNET family

The resilient-link family, for missions that cannot rely on a single radio channel: two links run at once.

HNET 8021 dual modem, two antenna connectors on a finned alloy housing

HNET8021

  • Frequency bands: 300–1090 MHz and 1600–2700 MHz, both carried at the same time.
  • User data rate: up to 2 Mbit/s.
  • Network topologies: point-to-point, point-to-multipoint and mesh, with a streamer mode for resilient downlink.

A ground-station version for outdoor use is also available. Contact us for options.

Software

The command layer for swarming and teaming, running over the same mesh link.

The HSWARM interface: PX4 link and ground station connected, and a swarm of one leader and two followers, all active

HSWARM

  • Coordination: robotic systems share information and coordinate their actions over the mesh link.
  • Ranging: time-of-flight distance between nodes, for relative positioning.
  • Navigation: supports continued operation when satellite positioning is unavailable.

Interface

Platform

Every product ships with the web interface and a configuration API.

Web interface

Configure radio and network settings directly in your browser. View device status, review link information and inspect the radio spectrum from one interface.

  • Radio configuration
  • Device monitoring
  • Spectrum diagnostics

Configuration API

Change modem settings programmatically from your own application. Integrate configuration into your existing software workflows.

Integration

Module to platform

Settle the physical essentials early, then plan around your platform’s requirements.

Housing & mounting

Define the mechanical fit around your available space, mounting points and enclosure requirements.

Antennas & placement

Match antenna selection, placement and cabling to your platform layout and operating environment.

Power & connections

Understand the supply requirements, power draw and connections before incorporating the module into your system.

The modules integrate with existing command-and-control systems over Ethernet, Serial and USB.
