FAQs

• What frequency band does this mesh radio utilize? It operates in the 902-928 MHz ISM band, providing up to 1W of RF output power.
• Can military-grade communication equipment support civilian applications? Yes. Communications equipment engineered for extreme conditions can provide reliable connectivity for remote civilian operations, such as offshore or off-grid installations.
• How does antenna selection impact tactical communication security? An omnidirectional antenna broadcasts in all directions, potentially increasing interception risk. A directional antenna reduces this exposure but requires verifying specific mounting and size constraints.
• Problems we solve: where do we start with incomplete requirements? An incomplete specification can make product selection difficult. Start by sharing the task, operating environment and known constraints with Cyntony so the team can help define what to verify and which options are worth discussing (Our process).
• Outcomes we deliver: what comes from working through the requirements? The practical outcome is a requirements-led set of product options to evaluate with Cyntony. Confirm performance, compatibility and any service scope for your configuration before selection (Our process).
