2400 - 2482 MHz (WiFi) Band Embedded OFDM Radio Transceiver (DLM106)

PDF

DLM106 is a state-of-the-art embedded OFDM broadband radio transceiver subsystem for the 2402 - 2482 MHz (ISM/WiFi) frequency band. This radio transceiver can be used for the Commercial, Amateur (HAM) Radio, and ISM band allocations. The broadband radio transceiver can deliver IP based Video, Voice and Data services in Near Line of Sight (NrLOS) conditions. It features high data throughput with 1 W Tx power, better Rx sensitivity and high SNR.

DLM106 features Doodle Labs’ proprietary RF front-end technology with advanced filtering and noise reduction techniques for high interference immunity. The DLM106 is specially designed to deliver best performance in long-range outdoor applications and it has demonstrated the ability to provide high throughput even in extremely noisy environments.

DLM106 maintains distortion free signal at higher modulation rates to maintain low packet errors and maximizes data throughput. The design uses highly linear amplifier to deliver maximum power even at 64 QAM radio modulations while maintaining low distortion EVM (Error Vector Magnitude). It employs fine tuned Low Noise Amplifier on the the receive chain to obtain better Rx sensitivity and high SNR. DLM106 is specially designed to deliver best performance in long-range outdoor applications. The Industrial/Military grade design & enhanced resilience to RF surges & ESD makes it ideal for deploying in harsh environments.
