BreadCrumb® Hawk Series

Mobile Wireless Mesh Network Node

The Rajant Hawk is a high-performance, dual-radio industrial-grade, wireless Kinetic Mesh BreadCrumb. Infused with Rajant’s patented InstaMesh protocol, the Hawk offers higher throughput with enhanced security performance using 256QAM, 80 MHz channels, and hardware acceleration.

The Hawk is reliable in extreme environmental conditions and has several mounting options, and contains two transceivers delivering MIMO operation over multiple frequencies for reliable and resilient connections. The platform combines high speed, highly flexible mobile connectivity to reliably power new applications at the edge with unlimited coverage through a Layer-2 multi-radio mesh fabric extended across the deployment.

The Hawk is our premier BreadCrumb solution and part of Rajant’s initiative to develop deeply integrated solutions that securely combine data from connected people, vehicles, machines, and sensors, with machine learning. Hawk is optimized for mobility. The Hawk contains two transceivers to give high-performance data flow for applications such as LiDAR and CCTV working within a Peregrine infrastructure. High throughput, enhanced security performance make Hawk the premier choice for IoT/IIoT mobility in today’s autonomous networks.

Features

  • Rajant’s patented InstaMesh® networking software enables the network to quickly adapt to rapidly-deployed and quickly or constantly moving network elements
  • Multiple concurrent transceivers for high levels of network reliability, redundancy and diversity, and fewer problems due to interference, congestion, and equipment outages
  • Up to 1.7 Gbps of physical layer data rate combined over two transceivers
  • Multiple radio frequencies – 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz as well as military, licensed, public service, and other proprietary radio frequencies
  • Multiple antenna-port configurations with 2x2 MIMO (multiple-input, multiple-output), substantially increasing the capacity of transceivers
  • Support for several strong cryptographic options used for data and MAC-address encryption and per-hop, per-packet authentication
  • Rugged and environmentally sealed enclosures
  • High bandwidth for data, voice, and video applications
  • Scalability to hundreds of mobile, high-bandwidth nodes
  • Integrated 802.11ac Wi-Fi Access Point and client mode service for compatibility with millions of commercial off-the-shelf Wi-Fi client and access point devices such as laptops, tablets, smartphones, IP cameras, sensors, and other IP devices
  • Self-forming and self-healing operation for fast and easy deployments
  • Reliable and fast off-loading to Ethernet via multiple, simultaneous bridge-mode links through the Automatic Protocol Tunneling (APT) feature

Performance characteristics

InstaMesh® protocol

InstaMesh is the advanced, patented1 protocol developed by Rajant that directs the continuous and instantaneous forwarding of wireless and wired connections. It enables complete network mobility, high throughput, and low latency with very low maintenance and administrative requirements.

Operating at Layer 2 and not requiring a root node or LAN Controller, InstaMesh provides robust fault tolerance even if there is a connection or node outage. No matter how you configure your network, InstaMesh networking software always determines the most efficient pathway between any two points, even when those points are in motion.
