APEX-M3702 MESH Frequency Hopping Backpack Radio

The APEX-M3702 is a MESH frequency hopping backpack radio operating at 1200~1300MHz (70~6000MHz customizable), with 2T2R RF channels and 2*25W output power, 1dBm step adjustable. It is a higher-power frequency hopping MESH node with no less than 32 nodes, no less than 9 hops, and communication rates of up to 150Mbps at 10MHz and up to 250Mbps at 20MHz.

One device can be used by multiple people. With a display screen and buttons, the APEX-M3702 shows device information and connection status and lets the operator modify configuration parameters in the field. It supports external microphone and earphones, WIFI, GPS/BD positioning and voice intercom, and supports WI-FI video terminal access, with a network port that supports device access.

Built with a three-proof design and IP66 protection level, it is made for high reliability. Frequency hopping is optional, with frequency hopping anti-interference at 1000 hops/second, and intelligent frequency selecting is optional. It powers on with one click, with no need to configure or change parameters. Communication distance is 20~50km (Air to ground LOS) and 5~10km (Ground to ground LOS), with 3~4hours working time at 10.5kg (w/battery).

Application Scenarios

1) Manpack MESH for Field Teams

For field teams that share one radio between several people, the APEX-M3702 works as a backpack MESH node with no less than 32 nodes and no less than 9 hops, carrying PTT voice intercom, data and WI-FI video terminal access across the team, with 3~4hours working time.

2) Long-Range Air-to-Ground Link

For long-range air-to-ground links, the 2*25W output power reaches 20~50km (Air to ground LOS) and 5~10km (Ground to ground LOS), supports 1000km/h high speed moving, and offers frequency hopping anti-interference at 1000 hops/second (optional) with up to 250Mbps at 20MHz for data and video from the air.

3) Mobile Command Post

For a mobile command post, the display screen and buttons show device information and connection status on the spot, the network port supports device access, and GPS/BD positioning with 2.4G/5.8G WIFI AP and 4G/5G network extension ties the backpack node into the wider network.
