Unlicensed Solution

Covering a broad range of frequencies from 900MHz, 2.4GHz and 5GHz with speed up to 1Gbps.

MDS Orbit

MDS Orbit PlatformThe MDS Orbit’s unlicensed 900 MHz technology uses proprietary state-of-the-art Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) algorithms to offer low latency networking in the 900 MHz unlicensed spectrum with effective interference avoidance.

MDS Master Station

MDS Master Station The MDS Master Stations, built upon our modular communications platform, are used with MDS Orbit Unlicensed 900MHz remote radios. The Master Stations support full duplex communication in a protected 1+1 warm standby transceiver configuration providing maximum reliability for continuous use, high duty cycle applications.

MDS TransNEXT

MDS TransNEXT The new MDS TransNEXT™ is the successor to the MDS TransNET™ 900 MHz unlicensed radio. Setting the standard for reliable, long-range wireless serial data transmission utilizing proven Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology, the next generation TransNEXT is backwards-compatible with its predecessor, TransNET. The TransNEXT’s backwards compatibility enables the continued use of legacy serial networks while also adding new capabilities to migrate networks with secure Ethernet connectivity.

MDS TransNET

MDS TransNET Today’s SCADA and Telemetry systems must transmit large amounts of data at ever increasing speeds. The MDS TransNET uses frequency hopping technology to provide a flexible wireless serial solution. Featuring a sleep mode that is well suited to solar-powered applications, store and forward capabilities, and unparalleled robustness, the TransNET sets new standards for reliable, long range wireless serial data transmission.
