Product Specifications
Key Features
- Mesh topology
- unlimited number of hops (relaying steps),
- only one type of node - no network planning.
- Multiple, simultaneous signal paths
- no single point of failure
- superior handling of obstructions and interferences,
- robustness and increased range.
- No-knowledge, no-training installation & maintenance.
- Instant Addition and Removal of Sensor Nodes – No Downtime of Network.
- No need to develop network managing software, almost no integration effort.
Architecture
- The VEmesh network has been designed to work in mesh topology. Its two types of network elements are the Nodes and the Gateway.
- A VEmesh Node can be a stand alone module or an add-on board that plugs into or otherwise connects to the customer's own board, for add-on wireless mesh network functionality.
- A single VEmesh Gateway is sufficient to access the entire mesh network from the customer management center.
