Link Distance
Mesh Rider® Radio’s Mesh Rider waveform has been field proven by customer to provide a link over 100km. The link distance of each system, however, depends on many factors: mainly antenna gain, line of sight obstructions, Fresnel zone clearance, and environmental noise conditions. The chart below give an indication of radio’s performance in a typical configuration.
