IP mesh MANET transceiver with bidirectional audio-IP board for robot / UAV / Drone Wireless Video & Data Link Module
MANET IP Mesh Transceiver | Long-Range Wireless Video, Dane & Transmisja dźwięku | Lightweight UAV Solution
Installed on the Drone UAV Robot
The UAV wireless video and data link module is designed for long-range transmission of HD video, telemetria, i sygnały sterujące, making it the core communication bridge between drones and ground stations. With the new IP Mesh MANET feature, the module supports multi-node networking, seamless relay, i ad hoc deployment without requiring fixed infrastructure.
It is small and lightweight—measuring only 73×47×10 mm and weighing 55 gramy—yet powerful enough to support up to 32Mbps data rate, multi-hop networking, i real-time full-duplex IP audio communication.
This makes it ideal for Robot platforms that require niskie opóźnienia, high-reliability, and secure communication in complex terrains such as forests, urban canyons, or disaster zones.

Przegląd produktu
Plik Vcan1401-Mesh UAV Video Data Link is a new-generation OFDM-based IP mesh transceiver engineered for drony, roboty, and unmanned systems.
Unlike traditional Wi-Fi bridges or single-point links, the Vcan1401 forms a samoleczenie, mobile ad hoc network (MANET), where every unit can act as both a transmitter and a repeater. Ten distributed mesh architecture eliminates single points of failure and allows communication even when nodes move at high speed or in non-line-of-sight conditions.
The latest upgrade introduces:
-
IP Mesh MANET capability – support for dynamic, multi-hop, punkt-punkt, and multipoint networking.
-
Two-way IP-based audio dialogue module – enables always-on, full-duplex voice communication, not just push-to-talk (PTT).
-
AES-128/256 encryption – ensures secure data, wideo, and audio links.
-
Optimized OFDM transmission protocol – for higher spectral efficiency, better diffraction, and strong multipath resistance.
This combination provides wideo, telemetria, kontrola, and audio over one unified wireless link, making it especially suited for mission-critical UAV operations.
