RM-2100-42 — Multiband Wearable Mesh Rider Radio

Interested in learning more about this product?

Overview

The RM-2100-42 Multiband Wearable Mesh Rider Radio by Doodle Labs provides secure, low-latency networking for tactical communications. Operating in the 1370 MHz and 2100-2500 MHz frequency ranges, it utilizes Wi-Fi to seamlessly bridge standard tablets and smartphones onto a long-range mesh network.

Technical Summary

  • Frequency Range: 1370 MHz (L-band) and 2100-2500 MHz (S-band)
  • Modulation: Adaptive from BPSK up to 64QAM
  • Throughput: Up to 100 Mbps
  • Transmit Power: Up to 1.0W (30 dBm)
  • Encryption: AES 256- and 128-bit (optional FIPS 140-3)
  • Core Technology: Interference-resistant COFDM

Operational Use Cases

  • Tactical team collaboration with secure voice, video, and data streaming.
  • Bridging commercial smartphones and tablets into private mesh networks.
  • Low-latency HD video streaming to teammates up to 1 km away.

Deployment Environments

This radio is built for demanding field conditions, featuring MIL-STD-810H compliance for ruggedness and an IP67 waterproof rating to protect against dust and water ingress during tactical deployments.

Performance Metrics

  • Video Range: Capable of streaming HD video up to 1 km using standard configuration.
  • Data Rate: High throughput up to 100 Mbps using adaptive modulations.
  • Link Reliability: Maintains robust link quality via patented Mesh Rider COFDM technology.

Setup & Portability

The device is designed to be conveniently carried as a handheld or manpack radio by tactical users. It includes external antenna ports, allowing operators to quickly integrate high-gain antennas for extended communication distances.

Compatibility

The radio is compatible with commercial tablets and smartphones, bridging them onto the mesh network via standard Wi-Fi. It also supports integration with external high-gain L-band and S-band antennas via its built-in antenna ports.

FAQs

  • What are the benefits of adaptive radio modulation? Adaptive modulation dynamically adjusts from BPSK up to 64QAM based on signal quality. This maximizes data throughput when conditions are favorable and maintains a reliable connection when interference or distance increases.
  • How do directional antennas impact tactical communications security? Omnidirectional signals broadcast in all directions, increasing interception risk. A directional antenna reduces this exposure by focusing the signal, though it typically requires different form factors and mounting arrangements.
  • How can the effective communication range be extended? The radio includes external antenna ports. Verify the radio's specific RF connector type and attach a compatible high-gain antenna tuned to the 1370 MHz or 2100-2500 MHz bands to increase operational range.
  • 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).

Video Notes

A video demonstrating the wearable form factor, bridging a tablet via Wi-Fi, and showing the external antenna connections would clearly illustrate its tactical deployment benefits.
