The IP Data Link that Works for UAV, Drones, and other critical platforms.

Overview

The IP Data Link that Works

P6000 are low-cost defence-grade data links that provide a lightweight, robust, and affordable solution for professional and critical platforms. A higher power version delivering up to 8W is available for long-range applications.

P6000 transceivers implement innovative synchronisation algorithms specifically designed to keep communication performance under high dynamics. This results in the unique broadband solution in the market that shows no signal degradation after take-off.

FDMA and TDMA multiplexing allow point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and mesh networks (MANET) with configurable time slots, data relay, and dynamic routing capabilities. Based on a proprietary channel access scheme, any network topology can be implemented without the need for external timing sources.

Multiple devices can be connected simultaneously to the P6000 Ethernet and serial interfaces, centralising data links for C2, Telemetry, Audio, and Video in a single device.

P6000 are compatible with S-6000 Dual Transceivers series.
